Michelle Obama dropped off hundreds of Christmas gifts to the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots campaign and in return received a surprise invitation from a soldier to be his date to the Marine Corps Ball. Lance Cpl. Aaron Leeks, 20, said he asked the first lady to accompany him because he's a fan and admires her work to support the military.
When Obama was sorting toys at the charity event and came close to Leeks of Frederick, he took the opportunity and leaned over a toy bin to get her attention and pop the question.

Depsite what we may think of his politics, it is good to see the president and his wife support the Marines' Toys for Tots program.

I’m glad, too. I can not think of any American President who did not support Toys for Tots.
It’s SOP.

“Michelle Obama dropped off hundreds of Christmas gifts...”
The same credit could go to her driver.

Somehow whenever a Democrat FLOTUS does something charitable one can't help but assume some cynical political motive.
There hasn't been a decent Democrat FLOTUS with a big heart since Rosalyn Carter—ALL the Republican first ladies were sincere and truly caring.

True, all presidents do that. but at least he didn’t throw it to the side. I’ll give him credit for that. The Toys for Tots program has long been a shining credit to our Marines.
