my guess is, if he did, no one would vote for him in the REAL election. these are polls. people are willing to make jokes in polls. not so much in the real election.
do the math we were screwed by the government why did i do my math so late because we are a group of people who has to stay aside from people who would go to war for gas or shoot me for being an immigrant. their are billions of us and millions of us................. you understand my last sentence..................
Honestly, if an action movie star can run for governer and win, twice in a row, then why can't a politcal comedian win for president? I mean, Colbert actually knows about politics. Ahnuld? Not so much! I live in California, and he's messed everything up over here.
I agree, I always say anyone can win anything when the fucking terminator is the governor. Look at it like this though, he knew he wouldn't win, he just wanted to make things like this happen, and have a good time.
Obviously this guy does not get the joke -- he's surprised that Colbert is more popular with Democrats than Republicans? Does he not understand what satire is?
well, it was an easy thing to shut down politically, but I was extremely excited about the political climate for awhile. hm, actually for the first time in my life.
not because I believe in "him" so much, but I believe in his staff, in who he believes in. it's not a goddamn superhero battle-off, presidents aren't dictators. he would've chosen good people to surround him.
South Carolina's Democratic party denied his proposition, calling him "ineligible", and he doesn't want to sign up with the republicans a)for obvious reasons and b) he refuses to pay the 35 grand to be recognized as a runner.
What does it matter? Participate in a puppet election, or throw my vote to a satirist--frankly I doubt if colbert wouldn't to better than our usual shmucky canidates, so go Colbert!
Colbert for President? "...after about 40 minutes of discussion by top party officials, the executive council voted 13-3 to keep the host of "The Colbert Report" off the ballot." - In the USA 13 people say who the next president will be!?! Crazy people are allowed to run, but not if they're funny? He tried to run as a Dem. How can you be sure he's not serious? He couldn't be worse than the clown we have now.
The 1968 decision to let Pat Paulson run was the correct decsion. If the fake candidate can beat serious candidates in the polls, then the election is a joke.
I like Joe Biden, he doesn't stand a chance though, the format he could have gotten his message out -some traction in the polls, was on Imus in the Morning, targeted by media matters, an arm of the Clinton Campaign machine. Obama appears to be blocking for Clinton, a "Strawman" every time it looks like he goes up in the polls, he does something, controversial, like question American's Patriotism i.e. The Flag Flap. Colbert is funny.
I happen to be from SC....I get to vote for Stephen Colbert......and I will....would it matter somehow or another if i voted for hillary or o-alabama or any of the others? I dont think so...if it does, why dont one of you let me know.....I'll consider it.
