That quote may have been from someone else.

That may have come from somewhere else as Jim died in 1990. I guess whoever said it was just referring to Obamas youthfulness. I have memories of Sesame Street from my youth (clear ones) Sesame Street's mark was awesome. It was the first children's show to focus on the fact that repetition is a key to early childhood education.

Yes Jimmy Fallon does a lot with the kids instrument things.. Makes it fun

I still like Sesame Street even though it has been a while.. Loved the Count, and the other characters on Sesame street.

Yeah when Jim Henson died, Barack was prolly in NY as a community organizer, but may have some memories of Sesame street but we was past the target age when it came into play
