The year is 2024 and the United States has just elected the first woman
as President of the United States.
A few days after the election, the
president-elect calls her father in Dallas and asks, "So, Dad, I assume
you will becoming to my inauguration?
"I don't think so. It's a long drive;
your mom isn't as young as she used to be, we'll have the dog with us, and my
arthritis is acting up in my knee."
"Don't worry about it, Dad, I'll send
Air Force One or another support aircraft to pick you up and take you home, and
a limousine will pick you up at your door," she said.
"I don't know. Everybody will be so
fancy. What would your mother wear?"
"Oh, Dad," she replied,
"I'll make sure she has a wonderful gown custom-made by one of the best
designers in New York ."
"Honey," Dad complained,
"You know we can't eat those rich foods you and your friends like to
eat."
The President-elect responded, "Don't
worry, Dad. The entire affair is going to be handled by the best caterer in
D.C. And I'll ensure your meals are salt-free. Dad, I really want you to
come."
So her parents reluctantly agreed, and on
January 20, 2024 arrived to see their daughter sworn in as President of the
United States.
The parents of the new President are seated
in the front row. The President's dad notices a Senator sitting next to him and
leans over and whispers, "You see that woman up there with her hand on the
Bible, becoming President of the United States?"
The Senator whispered in reply, "Yes,
I do."
Dad says proudly,
"Her brother played football at Texas A&M".
