A balding older man in glasses and a yellow shirt has his arm around a young red-haired boy in a blue shirt, laughing as he says, "Someday son, you could be vice-president! Or maybe president! You! The president? Ahahahahaha!" A caption beneath the panel reads, "Billy had been born in Canada." The joke: the US Constitution bars foreign-born citizens from the presidency, so the man is cruelly teasing the boy with an impossible dream. Votey (aftercomic): a black-and-white close-up of the man's face wearing a sly, smug smirk as he says, "It's called 'trust,' Billy."
