As President-Elect Obama sent his 10- and 7-year-old daughters off for their first day of school inWashington, D.C., last week, I couldn’t help but wonder how they traveled.
I didn’t really expect the soon-to-be first daughters to climb aboard a yellow school bus, Secret Service agents in tow. But how great of an example would that have been for children and parents across the country?
After doing some searching on the Internet, I found footage of the Obama girls’ high-profile ride to school. Take a look:

We know that the school bus is the safest way for most kids to get to and from school. But when it’s the president-elect’s kids, I suppose the case could be made that they’re better off in a motorcade of Secret Service and police vehicles.
Till next time,
Tom
