Now is was Heather's turn to speak. Her speech was concise. She said, "If you vote for me, I will give you ice cream." She sat down.

The class went wild. "Yes! Yes! We want ice cream."

She surely would say more. She did not have to. A discussion followed. How did she plan to pay for the ice cream? She wasn't sure. Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it? She didn't know.

The class really didn't care. All they were thinking about was ice cream. Jimmy was forgotten. Heather won by a landslide.

Every time Barack Obama opens his mouth he offers ice cream and 52 percent of the people react like nine year olds. They want the “ice cream.” The other 48 percent know they're going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess.
