"Michelle and I extend our warmest thoughts and wishes to all those who are celebrating Kwanzaa this holiday season. Today is the first of a joyful seven-day celebration of African-American culture and heritage. The seven principles of Kwanzaa — Unity, Self-Determination, Collective Work and Responsibility, Cooperative Economics, Purpose, Creativity and Faith — are some of the very values that make us Americans."

I'm a pretty lazzie-faire person so I don't care so much if someone makes up a festive holiday, the more the merrier. I just can't figure out why Christmas ticks people off so much but Kwanzaa is cool.
