9. #7 Took the words out of my mouth.

Amazing that a real human is in charge of this country and can (would you believe) not mangle the english language.

But the pilot on top of the stairs should have asked him for his boarding pass :hi:

10. I suppose the pilot on the stairs got told by the

Generals who were just out of the shot to let him on the plane.

[Shardik]

11. "You look like you came out of Central casting."

Love it! And then ordering a burger.

[psychopomp]

12. I am so proud of my President

and the people who serve aboard AF1. It is a pleasure to watch these people interact. Well done, President Obama! He seems to just fit right into the role of President.

13. Love that he referenced The Right Stuff.

One of the best movies ever made, and the way he geeked out over the Mars rover, you just know it's one of his favorite movies.

[EnviroBat]

14. Watching this made me teary-eyed.

Words cannot express the pride I feel in this man. To see him interact with people that love him. You can see it in each one of them.

Thank God, we finally have a REAL President again...

[EnviroBat]

15. Nothing will bring this country together like a President that we adminre and love...

my two cents...
