US President Obama Visits A Worried Mom Assured A Bright Future For Her Son

U.S. President Barack Obama paid a visit over a young couple's house on Tuesday, Jan. 13 in a suburban neighborhood in Nebraska. His visit to Jeff and Lisa Martin's living room is the President's first stop before his speaking engagement in the said State. He stayed in the young family's place for 40 minutes before proceeding to the University of Nebraska, according to Capitol Hill Blue.

Almost a year ago, the mother of a then newborn baby filled with worry and anxiety wrote a letter 4 a.m. after feeding her child. Uncertain if her letter will ever get to the president, Lisa Martin, an English high school teacher, expressed through her letter the fear she had for the future of her son and the next generation. Seeing herself as a powerless parent to execute the change that she wants to see just to assure a better life for her son, she placed her hope and thereby encouraged the president whom she believes is the right person who can handle the burden that she has.

In some part of her letter, Martin raised her concern about climate change and if her son and her son's children will have the chance to still see the things we see now in this planet.

One year after sending that letter to the White House, the President replied at her doorstep bringing the assurance that Cooper, Lisa Martin's son will have a great future. The president told her that the future is bright but that requires a nation to follow his policy prescription, as reported by The Huffingtonpost.

After the home visit, President Obama then proceeded to the University of Nebraska. "I want everybody to remember, America's been through big changes before," Obama said.

"And each time, we overcame our fears and we overcame our challenges. Each time, we made such change work for us. And each time, we emerged stronger and better than we were before. That's what we do as Americans", he added speaking in front of a huge audience with 8,000 people, according to The New York Times.
