Obama's New Year's message reminds everyone we've got a lot of work to do in 2019

Barack Obama doesn't have to say much to inspire the masses. A simple message like the one the former president tweeted on New Year's Day often does the trick. 

"In 2018 people stepped up and showed up like never before," Obama wrote. "Keep it up in 2019. We've got a lot of work to do, and I'll be right there with you. Happy New Year, everybody!"

The replies are exactly what you'd expect, ranging from "Thank you for keeping your voice out there to give us a little bit of hope" to "It soothes my soul to hear from you, our last sane leader" to "You, sir, are a breath of fresh air." 

In 2018 people stepped up and showed up like never before. Keep it up in 2019. We’ve got a lot of work to do, and I’ll be right there with you. Happy New Year, everybody!
