Good Morning, Mrs. President
November 18th, 2008
I used to have aspirations of becoming a president of the United States. I was crushed in 8th grade when I found out that foreign-born American citizens need not apply. Then my hopes were raised when I was told that foreign-born American citizens could become president…as long as both parents were citizens of the US at time of birth. Awww, drat!
Congrats to Barack Obama and all, but I think I have finally reached the end of my presidential aspirations (or delusions, at least). After reading this article in the New York Times, I will never again want to become president…ever. I cringe when I think of what Obama is going to have to go through once he’s sworn in.
I know you’re all about change, Mr. President-to-Be. But I think this is definitely one rule you should get changed ASAP, for your sake and for those of us techies who dream (or used to dream) of holding the highest office in the nation.
Maybe I should txt him…
