It seems so rare among political couples that we see a couple that genuinely exudes love and affection for one another, rather than just a sense of duty.<br/><br/>I love the way Barack looks at his wife and speaks about his wife - you can tell that he really adores and respects her as the black queen she is. As a black woman that is a beautiful thing to see. I love the way they relate to each other.
