Obama is From Star Wars

Stu and I were explaining to Conall that the election was over and a new president had been chosen.
Me: "Do you know who Barack Obama is?"
Conall: "Yes"
Me: "You do?"
Conall: "Yeah, he's from Star Wars"
(He's referring to Obi-wan)

Matt and Jana's son, Tristan, calls him Barack the Builder after Bob the Builder because of his "Yes, We Can!" motto. So, I guess according to our boys, our president-elect is Barack the Builder from Star Wars.

Aren't our kids hilarious? I love this post! I hadn't thought of it sounding like a name from Star Wars, but it really does!

Me either. I puzzled over it for awhile before I figured out that it did sound like Obi-Wan.
They are funny, aren't they?
