How A Man Gets To The Top (Feminist Style)

Susan notes: my kind of tongue-in-cheek sexist joke!

One night President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine and go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that wasn't too luxurious.

When they were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the President's secret service if he could please speak to the First Lady in private. They obliged and Michelle had a conversation with the owner.

When she came back to the table following the conversation, the President asked:

"What was that all about? Why was he was so interested in talking to you?"

The First Lady answered candidly:

"We dated for a while when I was a teenager. He was madly in love with me...."

The President nodded and said, "I see. Well, if you had married him instead of me, you would now be part owner of this lovely restaurant instead of First Lady."

The First Lady smiled and replied:

"No, if I had married him, he would now be President of the United States, and I would still be the First Lady."
