Its good to be the President

Dahling – I am so much better than last year- dontcha think?

I’ve been inspired to re-enter, developing my art, prepared t win” she saind in a Minnesota/Queen’s English accent

 

I am SO ready to be Queen – ‘Its my first time running. I am ‘suddenly retired’ so I have time to be a good Queen”

 

What’re you looking at?

“I’m a class act…low!”
