Ladies and gentlemen, the 44th president of these 57 states:

Real Quote: “The math stuff was fine up until about 7th grade,” Obama said. After that "I’m pretty lost” http://t.co/MLLYiP6T @iowahawkblog — Will Antonin (@Will_Antonin) October 25, 2012

Pesky numbers!

President Obama dropped by “The Tonight Show” to chat up Jay Leno on Wednesday as part of his two-day “campaign extravaganza.” Perhaps it’s just two days because counting higher is a bit of a challenge?

Leno asked the president a viewer’s question about what subjects he struggles with when he helps his daughters with homework. “Well, the math stuff I was fine with up until about seventh grade,” explained Obama. “But Malia is now a freshman in high school and — I’m pretty lost.”

Million, trillion, gazillion … same diff!

Update:

Obama’s “math stuff” remark on “The Tonight Show” might help explain his conversation with a teacher at Krispy Kreme this morning.

Obama: “Trent is a math teacher, he is buying donuts for his kids.” — Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) October 25, 2012

Obama: “That whole math and donut connection is the key to school reform because I know his kids are doing great.” — Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) October 25, 2012

Well, yeah. Of course the future of education reform is bleak without the “whole math and donut connection.” Just don’t tell the first lady.
