I like to talk about my obsession with french fries because I don't want people to think that 'Let's Move' is about complete utter deprivation. It's about moderation and real-life changes and ideas that really work for families.

Breast cancer is not just a disease that strikes at women. It strikes at the very heart of who we are as women: how others perceive us how we perceive ourselves how we live work and raise our families-or whether we do these things at all.

How do you tell troops who volunteered to fight for our freedoms that the country they fought for won't take care of them when they come back? In the time of war our troops and their families are supposed to be our number one priority.

War can be so impersonal yet when we put a name a face a place and match it to families then war is not impersonal.

The Iraq war was fought by one-half of one percent of us. And unless we were part of that small group or had a relative who was we went about our lives as usual most of the time: no draft no new taxes no changes. Not so for the small group who fought the war and their families.

The war on terror is the most insane and immoral war of all time. The Americans are doing what they did in Vietnam bombing villages. But how can a civilised nation do this? How can you can eliminate suspects their wives their children their families their neighbours? How can you justify this?

A professional soldier understands that war means killing people war means maiming people war means families left without fathers and mothers.

The truth is if anyone saw my home life I'm pretty sure it would look like other families' around the world. There's a lot of juggling to be done.

We realized that the only persons we can truly trust in this world is each other and our families.

As the father of six children I know very well the challenges technology poses to our families.
