Dinner with Barack: Two Teachers, an Army Veteran, a Small Business
Owner, and The President

brought their stories and ideas for this campaign and our country. Juanita, a retired public
school teacher, shared her concerns on public education. The President shared what a typical
day in the White House looks like for him, how he does Halloween with his family, and how his
father impacted him.
