President Obama Writes Children's Book!

http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/09/14/childrens-author-chief-obama-release-new-book#ixzz0zWcbRXdn?test=latestnews

Is anyone planning on picking up a copy? It will be out just before Thanksgiving and the Holiday season, I’m betting it might be a top seller and could be this year’s must have Christmas item.

Also if you cant find it on shelves consider these:

Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed! Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed!
The Skys Not Falling. Why Its Ok to Chill About... The Skys Not Falling. Why Its Ok to Chill About...

I got the 2 above mentioned books for my adopted little brother and sister last year and they LOVED them!

The publisher is only printing 500,000 books to start with. I'll run right out and buy my copy.

That was the only reason i got the books, just to piss off my stepmom, and then the kids really ended up liking them which made it even better.

To be fair he did write the book while waiting to step in office (January 2009), but in my opinion the Presidents jobs starts as soon as he wins office, plus i would think rolling out a book takes some time away from his job, even if a just a little.

Either way could you imagine being out of work right now and your President rolls a book out? I feel like a lot of people are going to feel like he isnt doing everything he can to get our economy back on track when a kids book comes out just in time for Christmas. Imagine not being able to buy your kids presents this year, and having the feeling our President is moonlighting as an children's author.

I honestly think theres a good chance that this book could be this years tickle-me-elmo. I feel like they're only releasing 500k books to get some free PR about how its sold out everywhere. You might want to hord some and then sell them on ebay or something for 2 or 3x as much. Worst case you return it after Christmas.


For use on ebay:
1st EDITION OBAMA KIDS BOOK not AUTOGRAPHED BY OBAMA!!! SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE
