Opinion Piece #3

No Churchgoing Christmas for the First Family
By Amy Sullivan

As you would know being a Presidetn it would be hard for someone to leave there hosue without being seen or floowed. Especially if your walking with a whole bunch of body guards. So this wouldnt be any weird for the President. But when you use ot have your family traditions especially during Chrismistime its pretty hard to start over. So when Presidetn Obama was as how he was going to pend his Christmas time he said he wanted to go to church as when he did when he was young. But since its hard to find a church without people looking at you its hard to a find a chuch. So throughtout the whole yer of 2009 he has only visited 3 churches wich he did enjoy. Once at the predominantly African-American 19th Street Baptist Church, and twice at St. John's Episcopal Church across Lafayette Square from the White House. Instead there were times where him and his family went to go to the Camp David is Evergreen Chapel where some of the past presidents have gone. Due to his past traditions going to Hawaii whre he was born and going to sunday school this year him and his family had just skipped the whole church part and left to Hawaii to enjoy there Christmas.

Clarification Question: Wouldnt it be better instead of going out to churches you have someone just come to the White House?

Application Question: Do you think that once you make a family traditon you should follow them or yu can jsut ignore them and make new ones?
