It is so nice to see someone that really cares about the children and their futures. And the children love him back.

1. According to FReeps, Town Howlers, and Birthers this man is "evil."

He's the last best hope we have. He's not perfect but dammit he's our last best hope.

4. Kids, all the kids I've seen him with, just ADORE him!

From the expressions on their faces and their relaxed body language, the kids are saying that they feel they are in good hands!

13. I can relate to that...

The little rugrats buzz around me like flies on honey. I think fatherly experience and a face that screams 'sucker' might have a lot to do with it.

11. They LOVE him. I love seeing that too bc it must just drive some of the wingnuts beyond crazy.

I can just hear their vitriol.
