I have always thought President Obama was a stellar man and he proved once again after this beautiful Eulogy for Rev. Pinkney, he is a true leader and has faced much adversity in his Presidency which I found disturbing but he has risen above it all and may go down in history as one of best Presidents ever….Congratulations and Thank U for helping America to heal…Your Awesome!!!!
