It’s not every day that we see politicians in successful marriages that have lasted for more than 25 to even 40 years but some are breaking that barrier.
Some might wonder what has made them stick together in this murky world but the truth is they love each other. Below is the list.

’27 years ago, this guy promised me a life full of adventure. I’d say he’s delivered.
Here’s to our next chapter of becoming empty nesters and discovering what’s next—while still feeling the magic that brought us together all those years ago. Happy anniversary, Barack. ?’ Michelle wrote
Obama also penned
‘Like the Beatles said: It’s getting better all the time. Thanks, babe, for 27 amazing years!’

‘I wish I could explain how much the light in your eyes has shone in my darkest moments, I wish I can tell stories of how your smile has transformed my emotions in my toughest times.
You have taught me that marriage is not about thinking alike, but thinking as one and regardless of the many tunes life has played on us, some high and others very low, you have made a commitment to always dance with me.
