I always dream of cleaning the world for you.



I haven't read Thanks and Have Fun Running the Country: Kid's letters to President Obama but I've found some excerpts online and it looks fantastic. Bill Cosby and I have more in common than liking over-sized sweaters and foods you don't have to chew; I too love quippy children. Below is my favorite excerpt so far.


Dear President Obama,
I know you want to save the Earth, but people don’t want to clean. My life is to clean up all the world and help you to clean. I always dream of cleaning the world for you. I’ll do anything for you because you are the president in this world.
