Student Gets "excused absence" Note from President

GREEN BAY, WI (WXOW) - 10-year-old Kennedy Corpus had a really good excuse for missing the last day of school-a note from the President of the United States.

Kennedy's father took her to the President's town hall in Green Bay Thursday. When John Corpus was called on to ask a question, he mentioned that his daughter was missing her last day of fourth grade to see the speech today.

"I hope she doesn't get in trouble," Mr. Corpus told the president. "Do you need me to write a note?" the President asked and then proceeded to ask the girls name, take out a pen from his pocket, rip the corner of a sheet of paper at the podium, and then begin writing. The audience applauded and Mr. Obama went on to answer the father's question.

Later, the proud fourth grader showed off her valuable excuse note, which read, "To Kennedy's teacher - Please excuse Kennedy's absence. She's with me. (signed) Barack Obama."

The parent’s discretion isn’t good enough, but a note from Obama is?

Don’t worry. When her Dad sells it on eBay at a profit, he’ll be heavily taxed, LOL!

It will be worth a lot in a few years when Obambi is known as the usurper who tried to destroy America.

That's too funny. Europeans put a line through an 'O' to designate a 'zero'.

Nice PR move for Obama.

It’s cute, funny and it aims to show that he is connected with the people.

Such a move would have worked for any president, except for perhaps Nixon. Okay, there is no way Nixon would have done such a thing.

Each MSM outlet will have a gushing moment about this for the next month, at least.

What a setup......
What was Dad's question anyway ? And who gets in trouble for missing the last day of school, which is usually only an hour or two. At least it was when I was in school.

It said, "I'm ending the D.C. voucher program. Get this kid down to PS 2568 down the street."

“I’d expel the kid.”

You sound like a typical, bitter, bible-toting gun clinger!

Welcome! :)
