American school children were in for a real treat when they headed back to school after the Labor Day weekend on September 8th - a welcoming speech from the President of the United States, Mr. Barack Obama.

President Obama's speech entitled 'My Education, My Future', was delivered at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia and broadcast live all across the country. His main message to students was to take responsibility for their education, which in turn would help shape their future.

That means no excuses for not doing homework or having a bad attitude at school!

    I think he is a good role model. I think that he has encouraged american students to aim high and reach for the stars. To build up their future. He is setting a good example.

              I think Obama is such a cool and funky president. At one minute he's a powerful man being interviewed by news repporters, and then the other he's chilling out and having fun with his family. I wish I could meet him. Ciao
