Watching kids leave for college is difficult for any parentincluding former President Barack Obama.
The former commander-in-chief revealed how emotional it was for him to send his eldest daughter Malia Obama, 19, to college this year during a short speech at an event for the Beau Biden Foundation for the Protection of Children in Delaware.
"For those of us who have daughters, it just happens fast," the 44th president said in a video published by WDEL 101.7FM. "I dropped off Malia at college, and I was saying to Joe and Jill [Biden] that it was a little bit like open-heart surgery."
However, Obama was able to hold back the waterworks until he and his wife Michelle Obama left the campus.
"I was proud that I did not cry in front of her," Obama said, "but on the way back, the secret service was looking straight ahead pretending they weren't hearing me as I sniffled and blew my nose. It was rough."

“cant make fun of any mans love for his family no mater how much I despise the guy.”

Nope,but running to the press and talking about it is not necessary-——he’s an idiot.
“Anymore, college is the laboratory of the devil. “
He should be relieved to get rid of that snot with uppity attitude all over her puss. She’ll come back thinking her old man is way too conervative.
When I dropped my first off at college I didn’t cry,I said,” Yay,one down,four to go”.
I am a dreadful person. :-)

Welcome to the campus...
When will the media get tired of gushing over that SOB? The hate they project at Trump makes it even worse. The dishonesty is staggering.
Trust me, 0’Banga, it ain’t nuthin’ like it!
Is Obama still riding around in Secret Service Vehicles ?
I’m sure she’ll be majoring in BS like community organizing, black woman studies, social justice, etc.
No they didn't, that's Harvard, the bastion of liberal elitists. She will graduate with honors and continue the legacy of her father just as all the Kennedy kids did.........
Open heart surgery on Obunghole would require a geologist and a micro-surgeon.
Could be he’s already past 60. A few years ago, he said he was 57. Of course, he didn’t know his daughters’ birthdays even though Malia’s is supposed to conveniently be the 4th of July.
I didn’t know Obama had misstated his own age. Not surprised he forgot the day marking Malia’s birth. I had read separately that he forgot the girls’ ages.
Probably. Mikes’s ‘un-tied down/back’ junk was floppin’ around big time in the video! You could see him, right at the start, grab the dang thing with a: ‘Damn it! I forgot my strap again! I hope to heck nobody get’s this on video!” type look.
Well...sucks to be you.
But why would you think anyone would care about your embarrassing little anecdote?
Wussy piece of fecal matter.
I don't care if you live or die, you treasonous muslim.
But he had no problem dropping her off at Harvey Weinstein’s.
I’ll bet he did...
Aw, that’s ok Zero. Malia will find her own choom gang, and all will be right!
Just more proof that Harvard has no standards.
Bull. I don’t even believe those two girls belong to HomObama.
I kinda cried when my son went to college this fall. First time hes had another home. Its a rite of passage. Its the end of a childhood and youth. I am happy for him. But its an emotional moment.
