I thought this was a cute story...the lighter side of Politics.

That's so great! Thanks for posting it. I'm forwarding to a bunch of people, including the aunt that gave DD Flat Stanley a few years ago. :)

I saw an interview w/ Michelle Obama recently where she said that he calls his daughters every night and lets them talk for "as long as they need to." :love-retry:

I'm a sucker for that stuff :)

oh, how fun!

[srhs]

Super cute! I agree!

Aww, that's a sweet story. Those kids must have been so excited. I love the last line where one of the boys talks about getting to vote at 18 - way to build civic engagement early!

I love Flat Stanley. :D

How cute of his campaign to respond. Very cool.

Wonder how many more flat Stanleys Obama will get now, LOL.

Very cute! His adventures are so cool. DD and I got a Flat Stanley journal ready and she cut out her Flat Stanley but we never actually mailed him out. Maybe now would be a good time!
