For whatever reason, the man strikes a chord with kids.
It was with great excitement that these youngsters picked up crayons and pencils to write letters to Obama at the request of their Fair Street teachers Jennifer Nish and Tom Kirk.
The teachers said they asked their students to write letters to Obama because they've grown connected to him through their studies of the election process.
Today, we present a few of their letters, in their own words (and their own spellings).
Dear President Obama,
What is it like to be president of the United States? I think it's fun to be the boss. I bet Michelle, Malia, and Sasha were very happy when they elected you for president. I hope you can put the taxes down for I can buy some toys. How big is the White House? I live in a white house. Well, it's not a house. It's an apartment.
You Rock!!!!
