Wolf is pushing Obama's emotional Mom bomb pretty hard

[BeyondGeography]

I suppose we're about to see something catclysmic, like Barack still loves his mother and wishes she could be here to see her son right now.

Hey, my eyes get teary just thinking about it myself.

We'll see what it's all about. Coming up soon.

1. Can you elaborate, please

For those of us without access to TV right now. Thanks!

3. As usual, much ado about nothing

Barack got a little misty on the Mom question, which was what would she say to you if she were alive today, and he answered it beautifully. (She'd tell him to keep his head on straight, among other things, and he thinks about what she would advise him to do all the time.) He also paid tribute to Michelle.

4. Thanks!

I'm way, way out of the loop down here in the Southern Hemisphere.

2. It's a great American story. And extraordinary, but not as much as you might think.

As the son of a single Mom myself, I am always moved by his personal story. It's extraordinary. God bless his grandparents, too.

Just knocks me out.

5. his mom was one fantastic woman

she defined feminist. Trekking across the Gobi, assisted 3rd world women to obtain micro loans to start a business, and waking up a little boy at night to see the full moon, and teaching him to dream big. She made him what he is. I am so grateful.
Happy Mothers Day, Stanley.:toast: You did good. ;)
