US Embassy in Israel Holding Contest to Hear Obama Speech: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Obama's visit to Israel is fast approaching, and the US Embassy in Tel Aviv is holding a contest whose winners will receive tickets to hear the American president speak (http://photos.state.gov/libraries/israel/76673/EMP/prhe031013.pdf):

"The U.S. Embassy in Israel is announcing a contest to be held on its official Facebook page in which it will provide up to 20 invitations to President Obama’s speech. Facebook users are asked to 'like' the page of the U.S. Embassy, and write – in the most original and creative way – why they should be invited to attend the speech. The winners will attend the speech together with hundreds of students and other invited guests."
It kind of reminds me of how Willie Wonka issued five tickets to visit his chocolate factory.

No, I wasn't invited.

No, I don't have a Facebook page, and certainly won't be clicking "like."
