It was just a passing fancy in the beginning but, the more I see going on in the elitist world the more I'm getting involved in trying to actually run.
I've researched how to run for POTUS. I've got my campaign speeches drafted in my head. I've got my reporter answers ready to go on various topics.
I've even got a huge, dramatic speech to give in the lobby about the lady who submits names to the ballot if she refuses me - to the point of making her embarrassed and try to hide.
My main line is: "I don't want the job. But, it's time that someone took control to stop this ship from sinking."

Being President is a can't win job. It's like being a sports official that nomatter what you do 1/2 the population says it's wrong.

Umpires can be wrong though. I know what you mean though Phil.
I still love this video from Mahnarch.

You can't please everyone every day....and today isn't your day....lol.
That's how I see it but, when all the lefties figure out that they're benefiting from my leadership, they'll come around.
The masses will call for the removal of the "2 term limit".
I WILL replace Lincoln on the penny.

I'm sure your thoughts are worth more than a penny Mahnarch.

Sure they are but, my point is that I'll be known through history as the 'Froogle President'.
I will ban any government vehicle from being any newer than 5 years old. The Presidential suit will be from the discount bin at 'Men's Warehouse'. I don't need $50,000 worth of plants on the White House lawn - dandelions are good enough!
I will cut/ban earmarks, frivilious spending, $16,000 haircuts, and I'll use a Cessna 172 to get around instead of a Boeing 747...
...of course, I'll be piloting.
Limo 1 will be a nice little Pontiac Bonneville (SSEi - cuz I gotta have 'some' class)
I'll demand the penny.

Over paid good for nots have often never had to really work for things and therefore have no concept of what things cost of how hard earned a buck can be.
Some wealthy silverspoon people are never really taught how a family got wealthy just that by the time they're born nothing is out of the family's price range and therefore they lose honest respect for a dollar.
Even though Ross Perot has been a billionaire for years, I would bet that his kids were still taught the value of money and you wouldn't catch them paying ridiculous prices for haircuts and hats.

Phil knows exactly where I come from.
There are several media covered events where a politician 'couldn't make a speech' because he was getting a haircut at the time (most memorably, while on the tarmac in his private Boeing [part of the $16 large])
I'll let my hair grow out and, when something big comes up I'll 'bet my hair' that if I lose/win, a certain winning citizen can come up and buzz cut my hair....or my mustache.
It keeps the nation involved and it's all in good fun. I like to keep close to my people.

None of this will work then?
I'll post something I guess.
That truck is a dual wheeled crewcab with a 5 speed my Chevy is a regular cab single wheel automatic.
I think the Chevy has more zip off the line but that Ford has been loaded to the gill with a big trailer behind it and it doesn't mind.
They're different types of trucks.
That Ford is only driven by our department though so its less beat than most company trucks are.

Muah ha ha ha!!!!...
Holy crap! This reminds me of the thread from last year, the day before school young Ensign Jason stowed upon my ship, 'The Scourgin' Chipmunk'.
Has it been that long, already.
