@TheAmandaGorman isn’t one of the stars of “the next generation” — She is here. She is now. She is elevating us. And she deserves every selfie w/ @BarackObama & @MichelleObama that she gets.

Don’t wait to learn why she is so important in our time.
Bless. 🇺🇸

I took this pic of @JoeBiden in 2009 at @BarackObama’s first inauguration and was a split-second late catching the word “VICE” as it scrolled up the jumbotron.

I stumbled on it again today and realized it was an Easter egg the whole time...
