Thanks to both Jason and Cole for sharing this amazing COLLECTION OF OBAMA PHOTOS this morning.  The picture above may have been my favorite from the  collection.  Be sure to read the captions and click on show more images.

The photo above was accompanied by the following caption given by the photographer: “I loved that he cleaned up after himself before leaving an ice cream shop in Wapello, Iowa. He didn’t have to. The event was over and the press had left. He is used to taking care of things himself and I think this is one of the qualities that makes Obama different from so many other political candidates I’ve encountered. Nov. 7, 2007.”

Even though this may seem minuscule, it really rang true to me and I think it is very important we have a President who cleans up his own ice cream drips!
