AB '08 campaign promises

[AustinBoston]

This Press release comes from the Committee to elect AustinBoston - AB '08:

I like to camp.  I like to camp anywhere.  But there is one place I have always felt uncomfortable camping, and that is when sandwiched between two so-called "hard side" RV's, what the Canvas RV party refers to as "dark sides".

Whenever I have camped in such places, I have been made to feel like a second class citizen, like I was not welcome or did not belong.  I felt like I was in a mobile ghetto.

I pledge to you, the great people who camp for love of the outdoors, to fight with every bit of my ability to stop the insideous spread of the mobile ghetto.

AB '08.  Together, we can unpave the campgrounds.


I'm AustinBoston and I approved this message.

While the idea certanly intrigues me, and the photo you sent me has a form of camera appeal, there are a few questions I must ask.

First, do you reside in a state other than Minnesota ?  The Constituion requires that the President and Vice President not be residents of the same state at the time of election.

Second, are you at least 35 years old?  The Constitution requires that the President and Vice President be at least 35 years old.  If an alternate form of counting years (i.e. "dog years") is felt most appropriate, expect court challenges, but this candidate will stand behind his running mate.

Have you always been faithful to your owner?  Do you leave small spots on the carpet?

Do you have any skeletons (a.k.a. bones) in the closet (or behind the couch, or next to your dish, or buried in the back yard, or hidden in the grass, etc.)?

I realize that gender should not be an issue when electing a president or vice president, I must ask this question, because it will come up in the election.  Have you been spayed or neutered?  I am not sure the American people are ready to elect an "it" as either president or vice president.

And this question requires some honesty in your answer.  The Vice President presides over the Senate.  One of the roles of the Senate is to act in an advisory and consent role on matters of foreign policy.  In that role, if you were to meet a foreign dignitatry such as the Prime Minister of the Republic of Dogbonia or the King of Slobberonya, would you bark, growl, slobber, jump up, or sniff his/her crotch?
 
Finally, do you chase frisbees?  Do you come when you are called?  Are you willing to sleep in your own bed (no, the Vice President does not live in the White House*, though he visits often)?
