I love the POSITIVE energy behind this project. Yes, please, let's thank President Obama for his distinguished, graceful, courageous, and dignified service to our country.

Have been looking anxiously for details on venue, etc.
Here is their main website. http://www.saythanksobama.com. They are seeking donations to help them pay for a venue that this event deserves. (Not a trivial matter so close to the inauguration, since so much of the area is cordoned off for security. The original, beautiful idea was simply to stand in front of the White House, to show our gratitude. But this will not be allowed, alas, because of the inauguration preparations. : ( )
They also have a page on Facebook.
