One sunny day in January, 2013, an old man approached the White House. He spoke to the Marine standing guard and said, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."
The Marine looked at the old man and said, "Sir, Mr. Obama is no longer president and no longer resides here."
The old man said, "OK", and walked away.
The following day, the same old man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."
The Marine again told the old man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Obama is no longer president and no longer resides here."
The man thanked him and walked away.
The next day, again the same old man approached the White House and spoke to the same Marine. He said, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."
Now the Marine was understandably agitated at this point. He looked at the old man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Obama. I've told you already that Mr. Obama is no longer the president and doesn't reside her anymore. Don't you understand?"
The old man looked at the Marine and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it."
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow, Sir!"
