For Tom, Jake, and Ella —KM To Henry, Amanda, and Alexis— who aren’t allowed to be president, but you’d be lucky to have them —AR NAME THE PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES. No matter when you read this book, there’s only one right answer to that question, because America only has one president at a time. But no matter who holds the job right now, the presidents of tomorrow are always out there somewhere. Some already know they’d like to run the country one day. Some are learning how government works as members of Congress or representatives in state, local, or student government. And some don’t have a clue yet that one day, they’ll be president.
