Is this poll asking who should be president, or who has the doofiest face?


Rand Paul is really cute. Not sexually attractive, just like a handsome little boy. I also like that Ben Carson has facial hair. Can (no-chance) black candidates get away with facial hair more, or is that a coincidence?

I knew one of his relatives was involved in antiabortion stuff, forgot the name.

I'm sure Rand will appreciate the support of the many Michael Steeles in the GOP. Can I get a high fibble!?

EDIT: apparently Steele is pro-choice, so let's say Ken Blackwell...or just Ben Carsons not voting for Ben Carson. All 5 of them.

Not just antiabortion, she's very into nearly every right wing crazy thing. She basically lives off her ability to claim MLK Jr. would totally be a Republican and just hate that mean old tyrant Obama.

Yeah, it is great that a certain group can claim a historical figure because one of his descendents leans their way. Messaging. That is all the Republican party has been missing, messaging.
I can't even say that with a straight face.

I agree, were he around today MLK would have problems with both parties and would probably do the only moral option available and join a socialist party.

If I remember right they took the "the problem is us" approach rather than any of the political parties. It's been years since I've seen it though.

The episode hypothetically deals with MLK Jr being in a coma instead of dying. He comes out of the coma in the 2000s. He begins his work again and has Not-Bill O'Reilly ask him why he hates America and why he is a socialist. He then starts pushing a political platform but his rally turns into a house party. He calls all the people Niggers for becoming exactly what society wants them to be so it is easier to keep them down. The people turn on him and he says "Screw this, I am moving to Canada."

After episodes of Black Jesus and Snitching, it is one of my favorite episodes. I use the premise (if MLK was still alive today) in my modern history class.
