He won’t bring gifts on Dec. 25.
Even so, Dixon Elementary School second-graders have been sending wish lists to President-elect Barack Obama. But the students are not asking for toys; they want lower taxes, cheaper gas and healthier food for the poor.
Hannah Butz, one of the students, even offered to help the new president hunt down Osama bin Laden.
“Once (Obama) takes over, I think he should help our country and find Osama bin Laden, because he’s the most evil person out there,” Hannah said. “If there’s any way I can help, I would like to help.”
Hannah included her phone number in the letter so she can be reached to assist with espionage.
“I like to spy, so if they found him, people could spy on him like me,” she said.
Hannah said she learned about bin Laden while reading a newspaper article with her mom.
