Obama and ______, Obama and ______ ...

Hillary?
Bill?
Chelsea?
Edwards?
Howie D.?



I rarely initiate discussion [or write] about politics - but since I'm doing this week-long blog thing (with a three month hiatus to follow), I figure it is best not to rant and rant about those hippie liberals and their abortions via universal healthcare, paid for by the taxation of the rich and the financial aid given to poor, uneducated, and often non-legal, i mean, "ILLEGAL" civilians [who are oftentimes, ahem, "COLORED"] who are basically being given an easier life even though they are making the streets more dangerous for our kids with drugs, gang and weapon violence, and prostitutes.


I am, in fact, a registered democrat, so I apologize if I have offended fellow party members by my last statement, but I am a big fan of sarcastic self-degredation (especially Asian, or should I say, Oriental....I mean, Asian-American/Pacific-Islander humor). So, um, sorry about that opening sentence - hopefully you're catching your breath now as you read this aloud to your 3rd graders. As for my hint at racism, I can totally flip it and reverse it. If you want, I can go Deep Space 9 on your ass and put Koreans in the same class as Greek Gods and dump the rest in the swill that I wash my feet in.


Stop feeling awkward and let me get on with this.


ok. GO!



Hillary.
Here's why not. Count how many times she tried to upstage Obama's candidacy and use those as reasons why they shouldn't run together. This would also be too easy for Republicans to hate on - especially the whole interracial thing (just ask my girlfriend, who is caucasian - i.e. Welsh, German, "et cetera"). Outside of gay porn and the NBA, the whole interracial debacle will soon be added to Roman Catholic Doctrine of "New Sins."


Bill.
I say yes. I love Bill. The 1990s were the best years of my life (well, after '93). And he was already President! What more could you ask for?!?!?!? Ah, life was so good then.


Chelsea isn't old enough - maybe if she writes a book about her cat....but not if anybody reads it.


Edwards.
John Edwards has officially ruled out running for VP, saying that he already ran in 2004 (calling it a "privilege") and "won't do it again." I would say this would be the most handsome pairing or running mates in presidential history - next to Obama-Schwarzenegger, which would be fierce.


Howie D.
I was a big fan of Dr. Howard Dean when he ran in the last primaries - he is also the reason why I am not totally investing myself in this coming election. Would he make a good V.P.? I would've said yes four years ago - but nobody would let this slide.



So who is my ideal pick? Jack Bauer, of course. Dwight Schrute of Dunder Mifflin realistically states,

"...unfortunately he is unavailable, fictional...and overqualified."



I hope Obama wins - I'm sure we all do to some extent. Do I think he'll win? I guess that question shouldn't be posed on someone who lacks confidence in the American people. Unfortunately too many of "us" are concerned with tax returns and stimulus checks instead of eliminating the national deficit and allowing research (e.g. stem-cell) to find cures or preventative measures to better our lives. Them republicans is crazy.


In other news, my parents are also crazy.
