Something kind of humorous happened earlier today

It's a beautiful day here in eastern Iowa today so my wife and kid were out doing some yard work and I was inside watching football when a canvasser for Hillary walked up to the yard and started talking to them. Now my wife is not a citizen and the kid is only 8 years old so she obviously can't vote either. So I walked out around the middle of a conversation to hear my little girl say, "BOO TRUMP! My daddy told me he hates brown people." The young lady canvasser was laughing her head off and I said "I'm trying to raise this Filipina girl correctly." The canvasser told me I was doing a good job and I assured her that I am voting for Hillary as well as down ballot Dems. She walked away with a grin on her face. So I'm glad someone was smiling today.
