When you’re nine years old, you’ve probably tried a lot of excuses to get out of school.
Whether it was flu, mumps, a temperature caused by resting a thermometer on a radiator, or an exaggerated cough, the number one aim was to get a legitimate note to hand up to your teacher.
When nine-year old Ollie Olsen wanted to head along to watch Hillary Clinton at a campaign rally, the child decided he’d write the note himself.
But just in case anyone doubted where he was that day, Hillary herself decided to personally sign the letter… just to prove it was legitimate.

We’re thinking this is definitely the best excuse we’ve ever witnessed.
Nice work Ollie!
