CHICAGO – President Barack Obama delivered his final speech at McCormick Place at 9 p.m. on Jan. 10. It's widely known that Obama is known for his eloquence and grace in public speaking. It's also no secret that he and Michelle are actually adorable together. Here's what he said about her:
Michelle... Michelle LaVaughn Robinson of the South Side... for the past 25 years you have not only been my wife and mother of my children, you have been my best friend.
You took on a role you didn’t ask for. And you made it your own with grace and with grit and with style, and good humor.
You made the White House a place that belongs to everybody.
And a new generation sets its sights higher because it has you as a role model.
You have made me proud, and you have made the country proud.
And we can't forget Joe Biden's little tribute.
To Joe Biden... the scrappy kid from Scranton who became Delaware’s favorite son. You were the first decision I made as a nominee, and it was the best.
Not just because you have been a great vice president, but because in the bargain I gained a brother. And we love you and Jill like family. And your friendship has been one of the great joys of our lives.
A Golden Globe-worthy thank you.
