Jesus White Is An Obama Man

JesusWhite
Gar Joseph today gets the official presidential endorsement from mayoral candidate Jesus White:

"I like Obama because I feel like he has the voice of the people and has captured the heart of the people," White said. "He's very well-versed on all of the issues, even the sublime issues, very outspoken and stands his ground. I think he'd be a very strong president."

But here's even better news: White is no longer homeless, has a furnished pad in North Philly and has a job as a security guard. And, hey, his endorsement of Obama is pretty sensible as well. Just excellent.

Endorsement Dissent: Ron Paul For President

020408ronlepaulchaun.jpg
Today, PW endorses Barack Obama, a move so unsurprising the editorial has to mention it in the first sentence. Obama did coke and is kinda sorta for decriminalizing marijuana, he seems like a nice guy, I can relate to him, so he's clearly a stellar candidate.

However, if you have learned one thing about me from reading this blog for God knows how long, it's that I act selfishly. And what is more selfish than to vote based on merely who provides the most entertainment to me, annoying, lazy blogger? That's right: I want you to vote for Ron Paul.

If it were up to me, I'd encourage you to vote for the gold-loving Ron Paul for king, but Ron Paul loves the constitution so much he wouldn't accept the position of king. And the only candidate for actual change in the race -- this is actually true, sadly -- has a shot to get 10-20 percent in Alaska despite a near blackout by the Main Stream Media. And he loves gold! Who doesn't love gold? No one I know, that's for sure.

Ron Paul wants to get rid of social security and the IRS and the military and close off our borders and murder all the abortion doctors and let us do all the drugs we want (though, oddly, he never mentions this last one). He also is against the Civil War, which means the Union League cannot support him. Ron Paul for King President! What could possibly go wrong?

Wait, don't answer that.

Bill Clinton Surprisingly Stumps For Wife

KYW 1060 keeps reporting this morning about the "key endorsement" Hillary Clinton picked up yesterday from Mayor-elect Michael Nutter, as if he's going to be the key person to put Hill over the top. But saying Hillary has "the right priorities for Philadelphia," Nutter gave her his endorsement, which had nothing to do with Bill Clinton being in town.

One day after being heckled by a robot, Clinton rebounded to tell you to vote for his wife and that he'd even be campaigning for her even if they weren't married. What if she had divorced him? Would he do it then?

Hillary basically has this thing in the bag; all she has to do is beat a dude who doesn't believe in evolution (Mike Huckabee) sometime next year (I don't know when). Then again, she has been endorsed by John Street, and she is a Democrat, so anything's possible.
