Meet the President

“At the end of his talk I was at his feet, literally. He stepped down from the stage and began shaking hands. I dried my hand on pants and I was ready. I believe I was the third or fourth handshake. The President appeared, he looked me in the eyes and he shook my hand. I reached forward with gusto. To my utter amazement, his handshake was very, very extremely limp. His hand slide through mine as if I was vainly trying to grasp a skinned mango. Not really slimy, though somewhat moist, but seriously, there was little to grasp.”

“When the President concluded his speech he came down to meet some of the attendees of the event. Even though it was crowded and everyone was rushing to meet him, my husband and I still got the opportunity to shake his hands and take some photos. He even thanked us personally for our service. It was an amazing moment because I wasn't expecting to shake his hand. Afterwards, I had this big grin on my face and I thanked him for being our President. My husband was also shocked and couldn't stop smiling.”
