4. I'm always happy to see so many big smiles on

the US troops in the room when Obama is there.

Korean troops looking so serious and at attention, American troops of all colors with broad smiles almost breaking out in laughter with the President, or snapping pictures.

I think Obama is still well respected, even liked, by many in the military. I hope I'm right.
