The Perfect Democrat Candidate, a Man of Color, a Leader, a Doer...

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

"I'm against all quotas, all set-asides," he says. "America is the greatest. We got ahead by hard work. We shouldn't respond to every problem with a government program. Here, anyone can succeed."

...

But while he prepares to take office with high hopes and good wishes, there are some sobering obstacles that could impede his agenda. Louisiana ranks third in the nation in the number of elected officials per capita convicted of crimes. That means that some power brokers will have real incentives to preserve the status quo. (Reminds me of Bush in 2001.)

What he likes best, though, is for people to post long poems in his threads, or very large pictures which help to blow the dust out of his dial-up modem.

 

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

It makes perfect sense; we dog-whisper...

You sir, are truly an evil mad genius type.
