Incoherent Election Thoughts

On election morning, Ada and Cambel were discussing the presidency over breakfast.

Ada: If I were president I would say "go play! I am not allowing this." (followed by laughter)

Cambel: Ada, you don't even know what the president does. He says how much gas is going to cost.

Me: Cambel, the president does not set the gas prices.

Cambel: Then what does he do?

Me: well....(insert wordy and confusing explanation here followed by general confusion amongst the children).

Later in the conversation, which turned to who various people were "cheering" for, Cambel said
"If I ran for president, you and Daddy would cheer for me."  (yes, we would, but for goodness sakes, do not run for president).
