The President and First Lady are visiting Ireland.
U.S. President Barack Obama reacts to the heavy wind blowing as he and First Lady Michelle Obama disembark from Air Force One as they arrive at Dublin Airport to begin a 24-hour visit to the Republic of Ireland, in Dublin, Monday, May 23, 2011. Ireland has always offered warm welcomes to U.S. presidents since John F. Kennedy became the first to visit in 1963. More than 40 million Americans have Irish ancestors. The two countries today enjoy exceptional ties of culture and commerce, a crucial relationship for Ireland because of its current battle to avoid national bankruptcy.
