President Obama dances an Alaska Native dance in Dillingham, AK

[@theprincess74000]

I miss this president so much...educated, classy, calm, collected no tantrums, cares for all people...loved by so many world wide..no scandals....thank you for 8 great years

[@annedwyer797]

So well said, I miss him too! I actually get a little teary when I happen to see a video or interview with him.

[@theresachouinard6733]

After I saw this on television I wrote President Obama a letter. I told him how much I appreciated his visit to Alaska. We are a unique people. I ended the letter by telling him it was good to see him with kids laughing and dancing. I later received a letter in the mail from him with an autographed photo of him dancing with kids. Pretty cool.

[@reya346]

I agree. He seems very well liked there but Alaska always goes red in every election somehow.

[@Dareone61Army]

President Obama is the Greatest

[@TiaMalas]

I shared this today because I needed a little pick-me-up. This helped remind me that we had a wonderful man as President for 8 years. This Alaskan was proud to shake his hand and welcome him to The Great Land. Thank you, President Obama for returning the Denali name, and for visiting our homeland. Gunalsheesh!

[@robertzimmerman7713]

That was a very touching performance. Obama clearly enjoys interacting with kids.

If natives killed and subjugated other natives does that also count as stealing land?

You seem to differ in opinion because he feels every single citizen needs healthcare because of the money we pay in taxes? And if other developed countries can do it, why can we not do it? He is too sophisticated for little minds to understand him.

President Obama Shames trump by merely by being himself. Imagine all the whining about Russia-Russia-Russia and posturing and awkward attempts at promoting himself and how he would later claim: "People are saying I was the best, healthiest, most powerful Eskimo dancer they had ever seen. The Northern Lights appeared above us, and it spelled out my name. DONALD J. TRUMP it was amazing. Everyone was screaming how they loved me at the top of their lungs and chanting... lock 'er up"

[@razajac]

+Hula Shack He could do something so very much worse that it'd be hard to wrap your head around if he did: He could spend US$2+Trillion on wars that no one needed, provisioned via bizarrely exorbitant no-bid contracts, paid for with money borrowed from Asia because he knew his "constituents" wouldn't have the guts to put the money on the barrelhead: *This is what Bush Jr. did.* Instead, Obama travels around the U.S., meeting (gasp!) _AMERICANS!!!! Horrors!_ You glass-half-empty types crack me up. You say Obama hates America. Then, when he uses a modicum of public money to remind everyone that non-CONUS folks are Americans too, and shows his love and respect to them, you say, "And we paid for THIS?!?!?" You're _so_ ugly inside. Obama has it _ALL_, up and down the scale, along so many dimensions. I will never understand how the U.S. lucked out and got a President capable and decent beyond the just deserts of the average American. We won't see another who'll come anywhere _near_ him for fundamental fitness for the job, for a very, very long time. I'm just glad we were able to wring two terms out of him!
