Some call him crazy. Others call him innovative. But President Obama (known on LetsRun.com as "Flagpole") thinks he's probably somewhere in between.

As part of his newly-minted education initiatives, President Obama announced that not only will every American be encouraged to attend college or university, but all elementary school kids will be required to read the LetsRun.com message boards once a day. Citing the excellent grammar, high level of discourse and appropriateness of topics, the President said "it has become painfully evident that many of our children are being left behind in the classroom and on the cross country course. We are confident that forcing these young, innocent minds to read the LetsRun.com message boards daily will elevate this great nation to even greater prominence in the 21st century.
