Sometimes something comes across my e-mail, that's just too good to pass up!
This little fantasy is one of those "things"!
One sunny day in January, 2013, an old man approached the
White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue where
he'd been sitting on a park bench.
He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said,
"I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."
The Marine looked at the man and said, "Sir, Mr.
Obama is no longer President
and no longer resides here."
The old man said, "Okay," and walked away.

The following day the same man

The Marine again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Obama is no longer

The man thanked him and again just walked away.

The third day the same man
approached the White House and spoke to the very same U.S. Marine, saying,
"I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.
"The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and
said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak
to Mr. Obama. I've told you already that Mr. Obama is no longer the President
and no longer resides here. Don't you understand?"
The old man looked at the Marine and said,
"Oh, I understand. I just LOVE hearing it."
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said,
"See you tomorrow, Sir.”
Remind all your
friends to get out and vote in November.
That old man is depending on you!!!
