Why would I care about Obama? He's educated as a lawyer and working as a politician. Whether he does or does not get his children vaccinated tells us as much about the safety of vaccines as the fact that he smokes tells us about the risks of smoking - nothing whatsoever.

Or do you think that if the President of the United Stated of America smokes, smoking must be entirely safe?

Regardless of what Obama does, says or thinks, he's a politician. Why base your actions on the words or actions of a politician when it comes to medicine? Personally, I prefer looking at what actual experts have to say - just like I would rather listen to a plumber than a lawyer when it comes to plumbing.
Yes Obama is a lawyer so obviously he doesn't know anything about the vaccine. Its unlikely he has teams of advisors, and the entire medical community of the United States at his fingertips....

Just admit you were wrong. YOU told me that EVERYONE needs to get the vaccine in order to protect the weaker immune systems around us. Obama DID NOT let his children get the vaccine, and Im betting neither did he, or anyone in his family. Whole thing is silly.

I don't have much time for all this though.. right now I am setting up the netting around my house to protect from killer bees, and birds that might carry the Avian flu. Then I have to make sure all my aerosol cans are gone to protect the ozone layer, then have to check the weather report to make sure I don't get caught in some nasty acid rain..... should I go on? Baaaa baaaa black sheep...
