Great barbie. Love that the elbow and wrists move. The shoes are permanently on her feet, just so you know. But she's a great barbie!

During the week prior to the presidential election my six year old granddaughter held a Barbie election of her own. She has at least forty (or more) Barbie and Barbie type dolls. Four dolls ran for president and VP against one another. At that time she did not have the Barbie I can Be President doll. When I saw it after the actual election and the Barbie election I couldn't wait to give it to her. She loves it!Best Deals for Barbie I Can Be U.S.A. President Barbie Doll
When my mother recently remarried, I acquired two delightful step-nieces and one of them is at a prime age for enjoying role-playing with Barbies. I recently traveled home and admired her collection and took note of the various sporty Barbies she already had, so I felt like a new variation would be a great addition.I was pleased to come across a Presidential Barbie to pick up for her for the holidays. I think it is great that young girls can now envision themselves as Presidents while playing with their everyday toys. I salute the White House project and Mattel for making this doll happen this year and for Mattel having put out multiple Presidential Barbies during key election years.
A small complaint is that this Barbie doesn't come with any nifty accessories to help further playtime, but this is also slightly positive as it keeps the price point lower which could put the doll in more girl's hands. One could open the box carefully and mount the graphic of the podium on a small cardboard podium or on a real play-size podium to give the President a place for press conferences.
I also wish that this doll could have had a pantsuit instead of the skirt suits favored more by first ladies. I saw that the 2004 variation of this Barbie took a cue from Hillary Clinton and not Chanel.
Honest reviews on Barbie I Can Be U.S.A. President Barbie Doll
This Barbie doll wears a suit made of bright pink material with a red/white/blue trim around the collar. Her arms are articulated but she does come with the very cheap feeling hollow body. Note that she is meant for standing on her own and perhaps striking some poses with her articulated arms. She doesn't redress as easily since the shoes have a special design to keep her stable when standing and are on her feet permanently. Also, you can't separate the pink undertop from the jacket it's attached.I think this is the fourth or fifth Barbie for president doll. This time, professionally done by an up and coming designer but is surprisingly bland for Barbie lacking the sparkle and interest we usually see in a Barbie.
This Barbie does stand firmly but it only takes a little shake to knock her over, as well. I think she is made more for the shelf than for little girls to play with, though.
