No matter which party you back, it'd be pretty darn cool to be visiting the Lincoln Memorial and to have the president show up. I can't imagine anything that would make a trip to Washington more exciting. I remember touring the White House when I was about seven years old and catching a glimpse of Ronald Reagan, and how cool that felt. I'm sure this young lady will remember her moment with the president for the rest of her life.

It was really amazing MSNBC just happen to be on hand to be sure and make a big deal of it...
The young girl seems to be thrilled to be meeting her president. Can't you just let happy be happy?...
cool. she wanted to high five the president. and the happy faces in the audience says it all. well done sir.
Those terrific smiles warm the moment and the picture. They're wonderful
Did you ever think this was a personal photo sent in instead of msnbc being there...
The press White House press awalys travels with the president. Whether it's scheduled or not they are always there to go on a moments notice. I like that he does things like this. I hope members of congress do the same type of things and we just don't here about it because they don't have a traveling press corp.
