Reasons my two-year-old daughter does not yet pose a credible threat to world peace
My daughter as yet does not have access to arms, or at least not of a nuclear capacity.
(Although I am not so sure about the biological and chemical weapons.)
She does not yet have contacts of any worth in the US Government, or in Al-Qaeda.
Her abilities as a demagogue and agitator are somewhat limited.
Likewise, her vocabulary.
So far, the only target of any concentrated policy of terror has been her big brother.
(Although note should be made of the absolute ineffectiveness on his part of violent reprisals as a tool of pacification.)
(Although she and Teddy are definitely up to something.)
Her adorable teeny tiny button nose poses something of an obstacle to any goals of recognition as a figure of fear.
(Although it may be of benefit in subsequent years.)
She is too short to reach door handles.

Hmmm, well, I was there and witnessed her Reign of Screaming when she realized Dave had toast with jam on his plate and her toast had no jam (because she had already eaten it, but let’s forget such irrelevancies.)
Give her 18 years and a bullhorn and she’ll be a formidable organizer, I think…

PS Dave did not help matters by appearing smug and, in fact, nearly giggling.

No jam!
No peace!
