The best way to get a team started is to let someone drive the robot!

If the President can't come to the Championship...the Championship will come to the President.

Even if you do or do not favor the president, this is great publicity for FIRST! and who knows, this could lead to more political awareness of what we are doing through out the world.

Hmmm...I'm going to bet that this President favored the right joystick over the left...still good press whatever your politics, right?

I see a future in shirts bearing the slogan "I was the President's co-driver and all I got was this stinkin' t-shirt."

I would've loved to see this! Just demoing in the same room as the President would be enough to make me keep my hand glued to the disable switch...

"Watch this, Mr. President"
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ "AAH MAKE IT STOP"


But seriously, congratulations!

This picture gives me a strange urge to make bad political jokes.

I'll suppress that urge and instead hope that Bush does some form of promoting FIRST before his term is up.

(Perhaps he'll even show up to next year's competition rather than just have his picture plastered up on the screen.)
