Like you said, why else would it be published in such a widely-read newspaper? Also, if Obama really wants his daughters to "grow up in a world with no limits on [their] dreams" (from his letter), then he would not deliberately put them in the eye of the media. If he wants them to be able to do whatever they want (as if they were normal, non-presidential kids), he would not subject them to so much attention (i.e. by publicizing this letter, supposedly specifically to Malia and Sasha).elmacdonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04518193121055245225noreply@blogger.com
