Five-year-old Yasmeen Faruqui wasn’t in the mood for homework — she had bigger issues on her mind.
So she sat down and wrote a letter to President Obama. What she (or her aunt) never could have expected, though, is that he’d respond.
Here’s the letter she thought long and hard over:
@POTUS A letter from my 5 year old niece. Right out of the mouths of babes! pic.twitter.com/Q8Sovz8eEL

“Please stop war for our world, instead have a meeting,” reads Yasmeen’s handwritten note, posted to Twitter by her aunt. “Please give a speech to tell everyone they can marry who they want.” Yasmeen’s mom heard back from POTUS’ Twitter account:
How about we take this to the next level?

.@DrFahmida tell your niece I really like her letter. Couldn’t agree more! — President Obama (@POTUS) May 22, 2015
Here’s hoping SCOTUS and POTUS see eye to eye on this one.

Adorable children are indeed our future.
Regardless of what anyone thinks about Obama also he brought so much to the lgbt community and so many states now have gay marriage legalized.
No other president has ever created so much progress I will miss him when he is out of office.
I fear who will take his place deeply.

@Louis: Absolutely. I am sure all the gay Republican frauds will troll this article. Obama has done extensive amounts for the LGBTQQI community and has limited Republican sabotage to the economy.
Hopefully we get another Democrat in 2016. The Republican party is tied to criminal elements and organized crime (Sheldon Adelson).

Yes and 0bama and all the American politicians are not actually going to do any of this.

@Giancarlo85: that doesn’t surprise me and let me just say just after the last week here you are one of the few breaths of fresh air I’ve had the distinct pleasure to come across period.

@Clark35: Keep spouting off dingbat. Please go back to watching Faux News.
