Harris responded, “Oh my goodness, Michelle, Barack, this means so much to me.”

“I am looking forward to doing this with the two of you, Doug and I both,” she said, referring to the second gentleman. “The words you have spoken and the friendship you have given over all these years mean more than I can express so thank you both, it means so much. And, we’re going to have some fun with this too, aren’t we?”
