IT WAS A PROUD MOMENT IN AMERICA WHEN BARAK OBAMA WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT. Finally, President Obama proved to the world that America is truly the land of opportunity.
Having seen the President's humor in interviews and during Press Conferences, I would imagine he would find the Spider-Man beside his well-drawn portrait, humorous and a plus for his Public Relations department.
I cannot agree with his politics, but I like him as an individual and I have more than a little pride in his decisions to agressively combat individual terrorists and terrorism in general. It will be a difficult task for the GOP to defeat President Obama in the upcoming elections. May the best man, or woman, win........Robert L. Huffstutter

Wow.........I love this one. You took one marvelous photograph.
It was not until this morning that I realized there are trains leaving Kansas City for other destinations than Chicago or Los Angeles. I can remember when trains left the Union Station for all points. I rode on many of those trains.
Now, for the first time in a long time, locomotives that look like like they belong in front of a passenger train are pulling these beautiful passenger trains. I am encouraged. Hopefully, train travel will once again become a joy for the traveling public.
I would recommend anyone planning a train trip, pick up the Amtrak maps and brochures to find out which trains run where and how many there are. Do not rely on telephone conversations with Amtrak because most of the lines are automated and robotic; it is rare to be able to talk with a live being, and then only after waiting a lengthy period.
My last trip on Amtrak was in 2008 when wife and I took the three of our grandchildren to St.Louis for a few days.
