I'm not saying he shouldn't want his kids to be successful, as any father does. But as POTUS, shouldn't he be trying to make America successful? What message does this send to everyone whose last name isn't Obama? Read the original here.

Obama: My kids will succeed, even if USA doesn’t

Follow on Twitter:
President Obama believes that Republican leadership of the country would ruin the United States as a land of opportunity, but he’s (justifiably) confident that his daughters will have plenty of opportunities, no matter what.
“Our kids are going to be fine,” Obama told supporters at a campaign event last night. “And I always tell Malia and Sasha, look, you guys, I don’t worry about you … they’re on a path that is going to be successful, even if the country as a whole is not successful. But that’s not our vision of America. I don’t want an America where my kids are living behind walls and gates, and can’t feel a part of a country that is giving everybody a shot.”
It is good to be the president.
