When I was checking out the news according to the yahoo homepage this morning I came across this story about our current President Barack Obama. It inspired me so much and confirmed for me that I had made the right choice when I voted for him to spite public opinion of him.
Obama's pen pals: When you write to the president he might write you back
Every night before he goes to sleep, the president of the United States reads 10 letters from the pile of 20,000 sent to him by Americans every day. Sometimes, he writes back. He's even, on occasion, included a check.
"It's not something I should advertise, but it has happened," President Barack Obama told reporter Eli Saslow, author of the new book, "Ten Letters: The Stories Americans Tell Their President."
Saslow has spent a year poring over the presidential mail, sent from Americans weathering the desperate economic climate. There's Natoma Canfield, the cleaning woman battling cancer who can't afford to pay her medical bills.

Good blog, Tara. It's nice to know that the President is compassionate to think enough of the little people's problems to write back to them and sometimes even try to help them out with their financial problems.
i know ive never heard of a president until now doing anything like that. makes me proud to know I voted for the right person regardless of public scrutiny
obama is one of the best president in my generation ^_^
