Obama discusses non-federally insured deposits

Leave it to a group of school children to get the president-elect to say the "P" word.

Here's a clip from the Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC showing Barack Obama with Vice-President-elect Joe Biden and education-secretary-designate Arne Duncan speaking with some Chicago elementary school kids.

Be warned: there is a commercial at the beginning of the clip; Obama's comments begin approximately 30 seconds into the video.

To make sure you understand the importance of these comments, I have transcribed them below.
"If they do their [slight pause] business, if they've got some poop, you've got to make sure you're not just leaving it there. So I want to make sure that my kids are taking care of their dog properly. I think they are old enough now to do that."
Good for the president-elect. Getting right to the issues at the heart of young minds. Right after Iraq.
