May 2015

I remember being a young girl with family watching TV and knowing my parents were scared to death about the Cuban Missile crisis. I felt in my heart that they knew the president had the strength to get us through it.

When I judge a president or a candidate,that's what I have to know. Would he/ she have the strength to get us through it.

I believe Obama has demonstrated that yes,he does possess that strength. He is the best president of my adult lifetime.
