Describing Politics to a 2 Year Old



I show her the Obama sticker - we've just left the rally (free food at the park across the street, yum).
Obana?
Yes, he's a man who wants to be president. Of our country.
Our country?
Yes, the country we live in.
We live in?
America.
Am-er-ica?
Yes.
Ok.

Later: What is it?
Obama.
Obana?
Yes. He will maybe be president. He will try.
Pres-dent?
Yes, in charge. We will all vote - choose - who gets to be in charge of our country.
Ok.

Later: He maybe pee in potty?
Who, Obama?
Yes.
