Maddie and I were driving home yesterday after I picked her up from school. Because of the different presidential yard signs we saw in our neighborhood, we started talking about the upcoming election. I told her that if John McCain is elected that Sarah Palin will become the first woman Vice-President.
Maddie paused for a minute and then said, "Daddy, I want to be the first woman president--NOT VICE--The REAL President!"
Hold on to your hats folks, Maddie Bobbitt is throwing her hat into the political arena. If we are basing our votes on cuteness and compassion, Maddie Bobbitt will win in a landslide. The first election when she will be eligible age-wise will be 2036 (although we hope to tackle the unconstitutionality of age-limits well before then). Her campaign platform currently consists of chocolate ice cream as the official after dinner dessert, no stuffed animals left behind, raising the Bobbitt family bedtime to 9 PM, and a Hannah Montana 24 hour TV network!
I'm Maddie Bobbitt's Dad, and I proudly approve this message!!!
this is priceless!!! She has my vote already :)

I second the motion: Maddie Bobbitt for president. What a cute story. By the way, I tried voting today but the lines were way too long. However, I plan to return on the actual election day and vote.
