Debate verdict: Obama less appealing than Legos
October 4, 2012“Can I watch Lego German Army videos?” my 5-year-old son asked before dinner last night.
“President Obama is having a debate right now,” I responded. “Do you want to watch that?”
“Lego President Obama?”
“No — the REAL President Obama!”
“What’s President Obama?”
“He’s the leader of our country.”
“The whole town?”
“The whole United States!”
“So we have to do what he says?”
“Uh … yeah.”
My son paused, and I sensed that the politics lesson was over.
“Can I watch Lego German Army now?”
“Sure.”
