Teen 5 presidential dream wins vote of confidence
DEAR READERS: Yesterday, I printed
‘HANDBOOK TO A HAPPIER LIFE’
some of the responses I have
received from people offering
encouragement to the 13-year-old
girl who dreams of becoming presi
dent of the United States. My office
has been flooded with terrific mes
sages of support for her, and 1 am
printing more of them today. Read
on:
DEAR ABBY: I am a 14-year-old
Jeanne Phillips
DEAR JIM: Well said!
DEAR ABBY: I am 60 years old.
When I was her age, a woman had
four choices: office worker, wife,
nurse, teacher. That was it. My
sister was told she couldn’t go
into computers because that was
“a man’s job." My daughter is
extremely good with computers
and uses them at her job in
girl writing in response to “I Have a Dream.”
I was enraged when I read her letter. Tell her
to never let the fact that she is female get in
her way and to hold her head high. She is an
avant-garde thinker ready for the future, sur
rounded by a bunch of backward, out-of-date
idiots.
Eleanor Roosevelt once said, "No one can
make you feel inferior without your consent.”
Be strong, stubborn and positive that you'll
get there, and you will accomplish your
dream. You go, girl!
ENRAGED TEEN FEMINIST,
ROCHESTER, N.Y.
DEAR ENRAGED: And I have no doubt that
you will also achieve YOUR dreams. Thanks
for a great letter.
DEAR ABBY: 1 was taken aback by the fact
that “I Have a Dream’s” teacher laughed at
her when she said she wants to be president
of the United States. His inappropriate
response was merely a demonstration of his
own lack of ability. To say a 13-year-old
woman cannot aspire to be president is as
absurd as telling Arnold Schwarzenegger, a
poor immigrant weightlifter, that he cannot
become governor of California.
JIM DONOVAN, AUTHOR OF
finance, another field that was closed to
women in the past.
A woman certainly will be president. A
woman has already run a major country. To
name a few: Golda Meir, Israel; Indira
Gandhi, India; and Margaret Thatcher,
England. “I Have a Dream" should run for
president of her class and the student council.
She should seek office in her town, her state
and her country. If she's not elected, she
should analyze her defeat and run again. She
will succeed.
CAROLYN AUGUSTINE, LAKE
WOOD, WASH.
DEAR CAROLYN: She'd get my vote.
DEAR ABBY: I am an over-40 member of
the U.S. military. That young girl should hold
her head high and use either national security
adviser Condoleezza Rice or Sen. Hillary
Clinton as examples of women who could
easily be their party's candidates for president
in four years. In America, anyone can dream
of being president.
LT. COL. JEFFREY A. THOMP
SON, MIDWEST CITY, OKLA.
DEAR LT. COL. THOMPSON: Yes. and
the realization of that dream could be close at
hand.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(April 16). You have terrific
follow-through, which is why
this year lifts you to a new
level of personal success.
Family brings joy and fun this
year new love or a new
baby in May. June shows you
winning at negotiations and
excelling financially. What
you want to happen in your
love life may not transpire in
July, but what does happen is
much, much better! Your
lucky numbers are: 6, 11,20,
34 and 17.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) Friends are doing things
that sound like so much fun.
you might feel jealous. No
need to be. Some people
can't get interested unless
they are engaged in some
thing spectacular. A
Capricorn points out your
competitive edge.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) Pay attention to newsy
tidbits. You'll need an ice
breaker in your pocket
because new people you meet
are worth chatting up.
Fascinating people have much
to contribute to your world.
Under the stars' gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Loved ones push your buttons,
but you know more about
your buttons than they do!
Avoid a fight. Push "pause."
and come back when you're
less emotional. You do well in
business but could do even
better. Ask a mentor.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
In love, your interest will
return with full force w hen
you see what you're shooting
for— the perfect supportive
relationship. You are a person
worthy of love and abundance
right now. Don't wait to give it
to yourself.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The
morning energy is ambitious,
overly so, and you may end up
spending the afternoon apolo
gizing for the toes that were
stepped on in the frenzy of the
early day. Settlements are
delivered. Ultimately, good
wins over evil.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
At work, you’ll get stuck
it's a sign that you're living to
your full potential. Trying to
take on problems is silly. Seek
advice from people who
know. This afternoon:
Meditate and calm your psy
che ego quests become not
so important.
LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct. 23).
Try to align your energy to
make a significant difference
in one area rather than chasing
every interest. Make those
decisive phone calls say
"no” or say "yes.” but the
important thing is not to say
"maybe."
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). A simpler emotional life
makes everything easier, so
take the time to clear out any
problems that you're having.
The walls come tumbling
down! Someone special
begins to take you more seri
ously.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). The question is
whether or not perfection is an
attainable goal. Debatable.
Detailed work will get praise,
and painful minutiae and
micromanaging also become
part of the equation. Be care
ful not to work things to
death.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). You've got a heady, any
thing-goes attitude. Someone
who is important to your
financial future waltzes right
into your life. Greet newcom
ers with plenty of warmth. For
financial luck, spend time
with a Pisces or Cancer.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Circulate in new groups
so you can learn about a wider
range of people. It helps your
mind, as well as your busi
ness. to know a little about
people from different fields,
religions, races and back
grounds.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Establish the kind of pattern
you can stick to. as opposed to
placing the bar so high you
could never possibly reach it
every day. Just when you
think you're at the end of the
road in a relationship, it takes
a turn for the better.
