HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRESIDENT OBAMA

Forty eight years ago today, OUR President Barack Obama was born. President Obama was born in 1961, during John F. Kennedy's presidential term. President Obama is the 44th President and also the second youngest President in the history of the United States. It's still amazing to me that we actually have a black man in office. Not only is he a black man, but he was the most deserving candidate! Diva Dish is wishing our President a HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Many blessings to you Mr. President and our first family.

Just wanted to give you all a little trivia about our President. I found out some stuff I didn't know so maybe you will too.
