What Would You Do if You Were President?

Kids can say the darndest things. They can also be wonderfully straightforward so we asked them what they would do.

With help from Ms. Cobert's 2nd Grade class at Evergreen Elementary School, the Patch posed a question: What would you do if you were president of the United States?

Their responses were a wonderful mix of different ways to be helpful to people. Also many of them seem to feel that cars are much too expensive. But each answer is very honest. Take a few minutes to read and enjoy their responses as we look at things from a child's perspective.

Here are a few of our favorites:

"If I were President I would do many things. If I were President I would fight with troops. If I were president I would have a pet monkey. If I were President I would give the poor people money."  ~Juan P.
