Presidential Advice

One night, George W. Bush was awakened by George Washington's ghost in the White House. Bush asked: "George, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?"

"Set an honest and honorable example, just as I did," Washington advised.

The next night, the ghost of Thomas Jefferson moved through the dark bedroom. "Tom, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?"

"Found universities and great libraries, just as I did," Jefferson advised.

Bush wasn't sleeping well the next night either, and saw another figure moving in the shadows. It was Abraham Lincoln's ghost.

"Abe, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?" Bush asked.

"Go see a play."
