randpaul doesn't know that you use v-necks or tanks as undershirts, not crews, because it makes you look like some gauche frattie.

On the other hand, given his campaign's advertising and his propensity for poo poo like shorts+blazer, I'd say he did it intentionally.

Why wouldn't you cast Herman Cain as Dr. Ben Carson?

I'd cast Cuba Gooding Jr. As bobby Jindal just to piss all the republicans off.

John goodman as Chris Christie would be amazing.

It being mediocre was why I was surprised at how much access that Romney doc that hit Netflix had. I assumed they'd shut everyone out.

1) Don't raise any money or resources
2) Disassociate yourself from any large or even medium groups of people who might organize to support you

2016 perry is skinnier and didn't age well. The glasses don't fit his face either in my opinion.

2012 perry was a good looking older man. Very rugged cowboy look.

I can't wait for them to cut out all of the interesting stuff so they can focus on sensationalism like last time.

The sensationalism actually makes the books appealing enough to read for the airport-flying crowd (the exact context I first read them, if I'm not mistaken) by grinding the grist of the campaign into something resembling a narrative. It's honestly a little weird that Presidential elections are basically the highest drama contest in the world for control of the single most powerful post, charged with the power to singlehandedly destroy the planet if they see fit, and good reading on the subject is so rare. At least, it rarely penetrates into mainstream pop culture.

The best story to come out of Obama's 2008 election was the Random Acts of Shark short stories with Obama and the rest of the cast as larger-than-life American folklore characters.

The real optics would be how bad Obama'd look in that outfit. There's some looks that just wouldn't go with his persona.

And the same, but opposite, can be said about Walker. He actually looks like a normal human being like this, apart from the germophobe gloves. Anything else and he looks doofy and/or unnatural.

Ha, we had these nincompoops hanging on the fringes of the crowd when Bernie was in Minneapolis, trying to push their own agenda. Cue whiny, "But guyyyysss, you can't be a real socialist if you're not part of our club. Why won't anyone just pay attention to us?"

Maybe them guys should give a little more thought to why they've been utterly incapable of breaking into the mainstream (hint: while the sorry state of American political discourse bears some of the blame, a little introspection would work wonders).

Months ago, I asked the same question and someone told me it was a red penny which stood for "not one red cent" more in taxes; or some such nonsense.

Also, those gloves on Walker eating ribs are just wrong. A real man would eat the ribs, lick his fingers and wipe them on his jeans.

The penny pin is also for people who want to cut spending on everything across the board by 1%.
