As and aside (we would likely be flying on a rocking presidential chopper with Barry o and fam.), I took a high speed ferry out to Block Island recently (it is pretty close to the Vinyard). It was badass. We stood in the front of the ferry, with the cool wind blasting in our faces, hauling ass across the water, seeing the island gradually emerge from the mists. Very cool experience and highly recommended.

I hate to break it to you but everyone is biased in their rankings of Presidents, both scholars and amateurs alike.

And miss out on being treated like Royalty? Hell yes I'd go! Good grief that would be fun, I'd avoid Michelle she doesn't seem fun. I'd have Barack organize golf and basketball games with professionals that would be great!

People take politics way to seriously.

Yes I would certainly take that opportunity. Though I am not sure how devout their practices of the Muslim faith are, and I couldn't call it a vacation without some sizzling bacon in the morning.

We didn't listen? More like THEY didn't listen. They were the ones who developed political factions in the 1790s, and Washington was a Federalist in everything-but-name-only. They started the mess.

Ignorance of Muslim faith not a problem as Obama is a Christian.

Attached photo of Obama with favorite breakfast, so there should be plenty of bacon.

Of course. I'd probably bunk with Jesse Helms' corpse if it meant a few free weeks at such a nice facility, fully catered, at Martha's Vineyard, so long as we have boundaries. You people who live in flyover country are really missing out - it is quite nice there.
