tell it a joke like this..You know that all potatoes have eyes. Well, Mr. and Mrs. Potato had eyes for each other, and finally they got married, and had a little sweet potato, whom they called 'Yam.' Of course, they wanted the best for Yam. When it was time, they told her about the facts of life. They warned her about going out and getting half-baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed and get a bad name for herself like 'Hot Potato,' and end up with a bunch of Tater Tots.
Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get her into the sack and make a rotten potato out of her! But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and become a Couch Potato, either. She would get plenty of exercise so as not to be skinny like her Shoestring cousins.
When she went off to Europe, Mr. and Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out for the Hard Boiled guys from Ireland. And the greasy guys from France called the French Fries. And when she went out west, to watch out for the Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped. Yam said she would stay on the straight and narrow and wouldn't associate with those high class Yukon Gold's, or the ones from the other side of the tracks who advertise their trade on all the trucks that say, 'Frito Lay.'
Mr. and Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University) so that when she graduated she'd really be in the Chips. But in spite of all they did for her, one day Yam came home and announced she was going to marry Tom Brokaw.
Tom Brokaw! Mr. and Mrs. Potato were very upset. They told Yam she couldn't possibly marry Tom Brokaw because he's just a...
Are you ready for this?

...change it into a new world, where the potato is your planet and the rest of the universe rotates sometimes faster sometimes slower around it's tuberous center. Only if you look really closely will you see the lovely hipes of the crurcely smunks where the minics go on friesdays for betting on the outcome of legless yamroc races. Don't underestimate the yamrocs, though, those crawls are nothing like any crawls you ever seen before. Their speed is such that we need to understand the Doppler shift to explain the change in color from a bright blue in a the far distance until they fade again into a dark red when they have passed us.
What happened then is another story, which will be told at another time and in another universe.

Make clothes for it out of potato peelings and tooth picks and carry it around with you, occasionally talking to it like it's a real person! ..although potato people don't live long once they're naked. They tend to get moldy and stinky so make sure you have more than 1 potato around!

...build a five story mansion, yacht, and leer jet with it; or maybe just a nice potato and egg salad.
I was going to update my answer to something more witty and humorous, but I vote for tallpapyrus' answer. It is most in-line with my political views. I can't beat it. No really, I have nothing.

I hate it while stupid human beings ask the question "ought to we alter the call of the White domicile now that we've a black president?" it somewhat is approximately as lame and novel as asking a tall individual "how's the climate up there?"

put it in a fresh bowl of milk underneath a pregnant woman's bed and feed it two drops of blood. This will ensure a healthy baby.

throw it at someone and run and see how long it takes before they realize a potato has just pelted at them. I've never done it, but it sounds like fun!

become one with it, like Emerson and his hidden relationship with the vegetables, so we can develop a deep spiritual bond with the potato, and from the earth grow and bring forth new life.

smash it into a tomato and wonder how we ever got the idea of french fries and ketchup.

carve it into creative shapes, roll it in ink, and then counter-roll it across a piece of paper, essentially creating art from a tuber.
