Default The Old Man and the Marine

Subject: The old man and the Marine

One day in 2008 in front of the White House, an old man approached a Marine standing guard and said "I would like to go in and meet the President Hillary Clinton".
The Marine replied "Si, Mrs. Clinton is not the President and doesn't reside here".
The old man said "Okay", and walked away.
The next day, the old man approached the same Marine guarding the White House and said to the Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton".
The Marine told the old man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mrs. Clinton is not the President and doesn't reside here".
The old man thanked the Marine and walked away.
The third day, the same old man approached the same Marine guarding the White House, and said "I would like to go in and meet the President Hillary Clinton".
The Marine, somewhat irritated at this point answered the old man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mrs. Clinton. I've told you already that Mrs. Clinton is not President and doesn't reside here. Do you understand?"
The old man answered kindly, "Oh, I understand fine, I just love hearing your answer!"
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow sir."
