My President and First Lady I am so proud to be African American and to have shared this moment in life and history to have experienced this presidency. This article preserves this life changing event for me and I want to express my thanks to Essence for this article. I have several books of Barack and Michelle Obama and continue to experience the genuineness of the couple and family.

Love the Obamas This was a great experience to relive 8 years of Black History through pictures and dialogue. It was also entertaining to feel like you were right there in DC.
