Abolition of the Leap Year

Just realized that when I have kids, i don't want any of them to be born on February 29th. That would suck. Why do we even put that day on the calendar? Actually, why do we even have such thing as a leap year? Why don't we just officially add an extra day to the calendar? Seriously, if someone just decided that every year would include 366 days, we would never know the difference. We should count February 29th every year. Who gets to decide that? Obama's about change. I think I'm gonna make up a petition and present it to him. I'll get all the Leapers (c'mon ,use those context clues) to sign it. The rest of the world loves Obama so once we get him on board it'll be a breeze to get it to the United Nations.
