How a good President approaches the world.

🌱Green Grandma 🐝39

How can you not love these two wonderful souls. Just decent, honorable humans who have devoted their lives to service. I have always been proud of them and my life changed when Barack became President. At that time, hope was real and change felt so good! Congratulations on your beautiful Center!

ShannahC33

You're both amazing. Thank you for everything you do and have done to make the world a better place for all of us.

Can’t wait to visit ❤️

Liberty 🗽8

Thank you both for always giving US gracious joy, peace, and hope.

Mitchy Mitch8

You and Michelle deserve it! I miss the days when the US was a respected player at the G7 not a confused old man that couldn't walk. Yall saw the video right? They force biden out and we end up with a senile narcissist nazi pedophile who cant get thru a meeting without crapping himself or sleeping

RegimeHater8

Wow!!! What a classy couple!!! They are the best of America!

Catherine Longkumer8

So excited to have it here in Chicago, can't wait to visit! Glad my kids as they grow older (4 years and 4 months), will have access to space dedicated to community that pushes them to dream big and take action to help others. Thank you for your service and the sacrifices your family made.

Monsieur Hotdog7

Thank you for your service, Mr. President. We very much appreciate all you’ve done for the American people. I hope that one day a person with the character, ethics, & desire to serve will once again grace the position of POTUS.

citizenfra.bsky.social7

We love you, Dignity and Grace. Marian Robinson is and also will be part of the Obama Era Legacy. We are grateful for her service.

Thank you for your humanity and leadership, Mr. President.

ProgressiveBloom5

Congratulations! This is more than just a building; it's a testament to an era. Thank you, Barack and Michelle, your dedication means the world to us! You are the best president and first lady I have ever met

Thank you, & every member of your family, for being inspirational and bringing hope & positivity to all of us that had started to lose those essential things. You are the best of us & show us what is not only possible but what we should reach for.

🫍ᑭᒪᗩIᑎ ᒍᗩᑎE🫈4

These two represent decency, integrity, respectability, responsibility, compassion and empathy… They’re top notch humans. And boy did we do good when we put them in OUR White House.

Driver94

Without any doubt, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are and always will be America's First Couple. They each exemplify what an American should aspire to be, and what a human being should aspire to be.

mariaterrazas99.bsky.social4

Thank you President Obama for such an endearing legacy, your audacity of hope endures. God bless you all. 💙💙💙

sri4

Thank YOU, Mr. President and First Lady. Rest in Peace, Marian Robinson. I wish she could have been there as well.

Gayle3

Their genuine grace and appreciation explains why this building will mean so much to so many. Knowing history will not be taken away, hidden or covered-up means legacies will be recognized. I don’t know about you, but I needed to know they are still here this week💙

Yeah, it's Karen3

Congratulations. I am looking forward to visiting next time I travel to the Chicago area to visit my own wonderful MIL.

PCNiles 🦋3

The Obamas represent, to me, what is best about this country. Barack Obama's presidency gave us a profound sense of pride, of possibility, and hope. Our nation was a better place when Barack Obama was president. May we someday again know a president who has the same decency and moral character.

💀𝕵𝖚𝖘𝖙𝖎𝖈𝖊𝕸𝖚𝖘𝖙𝕯𝖎𝖊⚖️3

Both representing the love of a marriage, class and dignity. There's hope for us all if we can learn to be a fraction better to each other.

Patti Arnold3

Thank you for sharing such an inspiring moment! Congratulations, can't wait to visit the center.

rob-jd1.bsky.social2

As a Canadian I miss this kind of president and I hope your country gets its shit together in November to start righting the ship

skontheisland.bsky.social2

And the entire Obama/Robinson families represent to me what is best about this country. Can’t wait to see the amazing Obama Presidential Center. I know it will be spectacular.

Demos2

Thank you President Obama, the best President in my lifetime. Do you have any advice about what TF we need to do now under a would be fascist, white “Christian” nationalist, murderous, genocidal regime? Thanks so much in advance 🙏.

Little Miss FAFO 🚫👑2

I can’t wait to visit! Congratulations to you both…I’ve been watching it go up and it’s beautiful 🫶🏼

patriciadcdc.bsky.social2

Thank you, Barack and Michelle Obama! What a sophisticated, kind, and different class you are, especially when compared to the trash and vulgarity now occupying the White House. I can’t wait to see your new presidential center!

✌🏼Evelyn Gandara☮️2

When I saw her skirt, I cried cause her Mom is there in spirit!

Luther2

Love to you and your family forever. Your legacy will always be in your eloquence, honesty, compassion, and humor. However, you got lucky getting Michelle. Probably no man deserves such a great woman.

ArchWonk2

Pure class…both of them. Best President and First Lady in my lifetime.

Carol2

What a cool skirt. What a cool couple.💙

Lisa Lin Doh2

We are so proud of you too. You and Michelle and everything you've done for this country.

Trump has secured who ever is still alive from the Village People, I think it's the Indian?

Apart from Common, the Roots, and Stevie Wonder I’m not a huge fan of the others but dammm…compare this to whatever the hell the fascists were tryin to do in DC. He still got the juice

Thomas Tillman4

What? No Vanilla Ice? 🤣

Nana Has Thoughts4

I’m sure none of them will be dropping out due to embarrassment, either. It would be amazing to be there in person!

Hoorah for Obama Presidential Center! #VoteBlueToProtectWomenRights #VoteBlueToSaveDemocracy #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica and #VoteBlueToStopTheStupid

Dr. Nunya Bizness5

It is so completely bonkers that we have a president who truly cares that he can't get big name acts to perform at his events the way a former president can. Just bonkers!

Svenning4

A proper President of the USA....

Rock-A-Willy4

And Trump couldn’t even snag 1/2 of Milli Vanilli!!!

jhsabella.bsky.social3

New addition to my bucket list and it at the very top

neginb.bsky.social2

five bucks DT tries to ruin this event.

802nancy.bsky.social2

Obama knows how to throw a REAL party!

Dr. WTF, kinda like Dr. Who but . . . WTF? 2

But where are all the *REAL* A-listers, like either Milli or Vanilli (whichever is the one that's still alive), Vanilla Slice, that guy who tried to look like Vince Neil from that band that tried to be like Mötlëy Crüë but only sang one song about sad cowboys and he may not even be in that band now

Peter M. Sullivan2

Trump couldn't get Vanilla Ice to show up.

melaniej49.bsky.social2

This is American culture, not a bunch of half-naked knitwit incel klansmen and nazis using fighting as an excuse to touch each other.

Gee, imagine that. And he’s not even the current POTUS celebrating USA’s 250th anniversary!

Penny Mize9

Eat your heart out, Donnie.

Rod6

Good thing the orange turd doesn’t read, because this would upset him. Then DOJ would have to make up a reason to harass the individual entertainers.

Wojtek's Ghost ❌👑 ✊🐸6

Oooooo somebody gonna be big mad

Don Sherrod4

Can’t wait for the reports (because I won’t be paying attention) of the 18hr marathon “truthing” session by Trump telling MAGA “Obama has washed up,no talent bums” I’ll have the best.

Misty the Cat Reads Banned Books3

Trump couldn't even get kid rock 🤣Trump will be up all night posting nasties.

freeworld99🍁🌻📎4

I hope it's televised. 🙏

AwntieWithaW3

I was wondering why Dumpy McCheez was so insistent on telling us the “big Iran deal” specifics on Friday…🤔

Scone Mason3

I don’t think Springsteen versus Wonder is a very fair fight.

Jaxonsgrammy3

So happy for another of our great cities to get an infusion of joy! First NYC with their Knicks, then Boston with the invasion of the Scots and next Chicago with the exciting opening of President Obama’s Center! You deserve it Chi-town!

Neil Suits3

Oh boy! This will be the real America 250 celebration. I’m all in.
