Thanks to our President and his effects on our economy, I have plenty of time on my hands to help the PResident retire as a "on-termer." I know there are several freepers that can use their skills to complete a music parody- perhaps even a singer to croon to the alternate (Alt- ) verses.

Cheers- Cain Obama...
