Who would I rather have a beer with? It’s a clear determinant of so many things about a president. And I can tell you, after every election I’ve voted in, I’ve gone straight to Washington, knocked on the White House door and said, “Yo, Pres! Time for the brewski!”
It’s every American’s right, as it says there in the Constitution, to “throw back a few with the C-in-C.” (Amendment 34)
What I’m saying is, since this question has given us such great results, we need a few more to really hone our image of a potential president.
Some suggestions for the overwhelmed, undecided voters of 2008:
Who would you rather play lawn darts with?
Who would you rather see fight a bear?
Who would you rather fight in a tub of jello?
Who would you rather hear harmonize with the Jordanaires?
Who would you rather see in overalls?
Who would you rather employ as a pickpocket and/or street urchin?
Who would you rather hear say, “I’m a lumberjack and I’m OK”?
Who would you trust with your last Pepperidge Farm chocolate Milano with cherry filling?
Who would you rather see impersonating a Mountie?
Who would you rather see with his/her finger on the P-Funk “mothership” button?
I strongly urge our media personalities to ask these questions, preferably repeatedly, so that we can finally get to the heart of our national political debate.
