Obama, Carter, and (somehow) Teddy Roosevelt

For sure Obama could convert a Word doc no problem. Hell, ~~Cheney~~ Bush Jr. probably could've as well.

With his youthful, tech-savvy vibe, many assumed that Barack Obama knew this stuff. But when pressed about how to convert file types, he responded, “What do I look like, some kinda fuckin’ nerd?” His honesty was refreshing. After all, converting a file shouldn’t be the president’s job. That is what interns are for. (Recent surveys show 90% of interns’ work hours are spent combining, condensing, and converting documents in a way that doesn’t crash the aging government servers.)

He does not, in fact, look like some kinda fuckin’ nerd.

It's okay, you must still be recovering from that coma that you simply must have been in for 8 years to have missed this hot bod:

Michelle forgives you though, bc she now has this hunk of man meat all to herself finally, and therefore so do I:-).

Also, we can be so easily distracted these days by...

Wait, what were we talking about now? :-P

To be fair, Teddy only managed to convert to PDF by sheer gumption. No matter how many clippies he faced, he never gave up, never crashed his Word, and always disabled OneDrive before anything else.
