I am so worked up over this election, probably because I am incredibly disappointed by my fellow Americans. I didn’t realize that we really did want just anybody in our Chief Executive and co-Executive position. I thought when we told our kids “you can be President” (or VP) we meant if you do really well in a very good school and actually um, work for a real government with more than 10 people in it, then you can be President. Not, go to community college and then play JV basketball and then you can be President (or VP). I am clearly exaggerating here because she did go to college (University of Idaho) and she played basketball there, or something.

It reminds me of the Chris Rock sketch:

How the hell did Marion Barry get his job back? Smoked crack, got his job back. How the hell does that happen? If you get caught smoking crack at McDonalds, you can’t get your job back. They’re not going to trust you around the happy meals … How you gonna tell little kids to not get high, when the man’s on crack? Don’t get high, you won’t be nothing. I can be mayor.

Okay, so its not that bad, she doesn’t smoke crack, nor is she paying folks for sex, etc. But I think my point is clear. You shouldn’t be like everyone else and get to hang out in the Oval Office.
