Yes, President Obama is as sincere as they get and so is his beautiful wife. They have empathy in buckets. A leader is supposed to set an example and he and his family do exactly that.

We are so fortunate to have him as our President after the completely unempathetic jerks that were in the White House previously.

I will sign today and thanks for posting that. We should never forget the children of Sandy Hook and something MUST be done about the proliferation of guns in our society.
