Emptying out my Fourth Grade son Ben’s backpack, I found something of interest. During the year end awards ceremony in his class, Ben had been selected for the “Future President” award.
Congratulating Ben on his achievement, he placed it in context. “They handed out two of those awards. Jackson was a future president, too.”
Ah, a tie. Son, you know what that means? Send this future presidents award to the House of Representatives to decide.
Tell Ben to take heart because Jackson lost his first presidential attempt 😉
Indeed, there’s always hope :0)
