Obama says the Queen symbolises the 'best of England'

President Barack Obama has told the BBC that the queen symbolizes the “best of England” to the whole world. President Obama has been in England before, when he was attending a G20 summit in London. This week’s trip to the UK is President Obama’s first state visit to the UK, as it is officially on the invitation of the Queen. The President and First Lady Michelle Obama will be guests of the Queen at Buckingham for three days.
President Obama and Prime Minister David Cameron will be talking about Afghanistan. Obama said : “I think Prime Minister Cameron and I very much agree on this issue”. Obama also said they both agreed that while the military effort needed to continue, this would not be successful on its own.
Reaction:
I think President Barack Obama is a gentleman, because he is so gentle and polite to other people. This time he is very polite to the queen by saying that she symbolized the “best of England”. However, I do not agree on him at all. I think that Prince William and Kate symbolize the “best of England”. She is too old and she should cede the throne.

    Yet I dinnae think she’s the ‘Best o England’ I agree with ye Sanne; William and Catherine symbolise the best o England.
