Here's a clip from 2009, when President Obama spoke about the Continental Airlines crash -- the LAST time we had an airline crash with fatalities in America.
He didn't blame Bush.
He didn't blame Reagan.
He just consoled America.
A REAL Commander in Chief.

Hey Jim- You were the best that @cnn.com had to offer & will be deeply missed! I look forward to the next chapter in your career & I'm not just saying that because of the killer Yoda impression you did when I was on your show.
Really love this cartoon from the great Michael De Adder. The outpouring of support coming in has been truly amazing! Thanks everybody!

Dr. King spread a message of justice and persisted in the face of hatred.
His legacy calls us to serve each other and to continue striving towards a more inclusive and united Minnesota.
