- In this tender, beautiful letter to his daughters, President Barack Obama has written a moving tribute to thirteen groundbreaking Americans and the ideals that have shaped our nation. From the artistry of Georgia O'Keeffe, to the courage of Jackie Robinson, to the patriotism of George Washington, President Obama sees the traits of these heroes within his own children, and within all of America's children.

Presidents make $400,000 a year and pay no living expenses while serving. So, after tax times 8 years, that's about 2.36 million dollars. He's also got multiple... New York Times... best selling books. So, he's likely earned a few million dollars. No different than any other president in the past 50 years.

It's on all of us to turn to the people we are on "the same side" with and say "Let's think about this for a minute. Would we have gone insane if Obama ever said to someone "You should read my book!" or "You should buy my book!"?
And likewise, from the right to say "I was pissed about the embasies buying Obama's book - so I should be pissed about conway's comments or that tweet!"...
Personally, I couldn't care less about either. Obama's book sold all throughout his presidency, as well as other ones like a book to his daughters... what was that one...

Of thee I sing, written before he was president but sold while he was president...

>Using the girls to sell the title -- the second book in a $1.9 million deal for three books, only one of them for children, that Obama inked before becoming president -- is not inconsistent with the policy of generally shielding the girls from public attention, the officials say.
>"I think our encouragement is to keep their private lives private," press secretary Robert Gibbs said Wednesday. Sasha, 9, and Malia, 12, will not be doing any book promotion, he said.
>In an interview with Sirius XM radio this week, Obama said he was asked to write the book by publishers who thought he "might have something to say to young people." The book was initially scheduled to come out in 2006 and explore a portion of Obama's childhood, according to a 2004 news release.
So even though it was written before he was Prez... it is released while he is Prez... and he is even doing interviews on radio pitching his book!
Do you think he pitched it on Ellen or The View or The Daily Show too?
Hm....well the books I suggested before are certainly within the 21-year mark...I grew up with some of them and I'm only 23. For really recent ones, I know of:
My last recommendation is to shoot an e-mail to your local library with your request. They usually get periodicals that list relevant books separated by genre and age, and can probably give you a better idea of what is relevant than I can (since this is a few years outside of my area of interest). Librarians are usually really friendly and love to help out with book stuff :)
