He posted a quote from himself in 2015, reading: “From my family to yours, have a safe and happy Fourth of July. —President Obama,” along with a video address explaining his plans to host a barbeque for military service members and their families.
“Happy Fourth of July, everybody,” he says in the address. “Like many of you, Michelle, Sasha, Malia and I are going to spend the day outdoors grilling burgers, hotdogs, watching the fireworks with our family and friends. Its also Malias birthday, which always makes the Fourth extra fun for us.”
“As always, weve invited some very special guests to our backyard barbeque: several hundred members of our military and their families,” he continued, offering thanks to not only those who serve in the military but the countrys patriots and Founding Fathers, as well.
“A couple of centuries later, weve made ourselves into a big, bold, dynamic and diverse country. Were of all races. We come from all places. We practice all faiths and believe in all sorts of different ideas, but our allegiance to this declaration … is the creed that binds us together.”
