Hey, he's funnier than either Bush or Kerry.  Or he could run as Dave Barry's running mate. LOL |

Actually... I think Johnny could take Dave Barry head to head. Perhaps Dave could be Johnny's VP.

I think it has a lot to do with her keen eye for talent, and her obvious intelligence. I need to see if Dave has an email address. If so, I'll pitch him the idea. All State of the Union addresses will be done with the Movie Mark website as the backdrop. |

So Johnny, in the mock-political arena, what's your platform? *this is gonna be good.* |

oh Johnny, there's many reasons!
Yeah, they were actually wanting me to help out on the American Idol auditions that were in town last weekend, but I had to mow my lawn instead. Trust that if I was there, there would be no future Fantasia Barrinos from the NC area.
I hear that Ken Jennings feels threatened by my general existance.
Dave seems to be a dubious creature, not posting his email address in plain view that I can find in my 3 second searches. Good luck getting in touch with him though. I will be happy to be your campaign organizer/advisor/manager. Humble I am.

He's got a posting board though. Been on it.
Booyah's board is better though.

So Johnny, in the mock-political arena, what's your platform? *this is gonna be good.* My platform, huh? Admittedly, some of these might be a little controversial, but I'm pretty sure I'm speaking for the majority of hard-working Americans. Issues concerning taxes: I support lowering taxes for people who work hard for what they get while taxing the Hollywood rich. Hollywood loves to complain from their limousines about how worse off the poor are than they, so what better way to ease their conscience? Issues concerning jobs: I'll call my proposal Farewell, welfare. Get off your butt and get a job, slacker. I'll organize some volunteer crews to go wake people up before noon and slap them around until they realize that cashiering at Burger King *is* better than nothing. Issues concerning education: I propose a referendum making sure kids read real classics such as any of Scott Adams' Dilbert books (particularly Dogbert's Top-Secret Management Handbook and The Joy of Work). Let's face it, these books are more entertaining and more useful in real life than Jane Eyre. Speaking of which, children can still read Jane Eyre if they like, but they can also choose to read something like Lonesome Dove if they'd prefer. Issues concerning national security: Ideally, I'd send Josh Brolin as Jimmy Hickok to find Bin Laden. But I admit, that one would be harder to implement. Also, I'd work on passing a referendum where anybody *COUGHhollywoodHACK* who flies in private jets and rides in limousines, stays in five-star hotel suites, owns multi-million dollar homes, and eats only the finest cuisine, is to be slapped repeatedly upon the face with the open palm at any mention of how we're not doing enough to help the poor and starving. And if said person pays $1 for a colored ribbon and thinks they're actually making a difference (when they've got millions to spare) then they are to receive a backhand. They shall receive two backhands if they flaunt around at the Oscars and Emmys in million-dollar dresses and jewelry all while talking about how we need to do more for the poor. I propose an amendment that will prevent people from being Congressmen who have driven off a bridge drunk, left a girl to die, and then paid off the family to keep quiet. And most importantly, I pledge to make sure The Young Riders is released on DVD. Furthermore, I'll halt the production of the Alf DVD until this problem is corrected. Oh, and assuming I run with Dave Barry, I'll act like we really need to get Dave's World on DVD. After all, I can always use the support of his fans and money. |

Uh yeah, and while I'm his campaign manager, I will try to keep Johnny from pissing off the whole world in one speech. And I'll be sure to smack him if he shows up in a $10k suit to any social funciton.

Though I have no doubt Johnny would make a fine President, I don't think I could handle how busy he'd be. Then again, I would make an excellent First Lady.

Yea, imagine the Christmas gifts y'all would get me if y'all were President and First Lady. And the places you'd take me! I mean how much better can you get when y'all are taking me to Tiger Fan Day?! Woo! And Johnny could come in my 1st period and lay the smack down on my teacher when he starts trash-talking Bush and won't let me finishing saying what I have to say about Kerry!  But I guess if Johnny was to come in my teacher would be talking trash about Johnny instead of Bush. Anyways, you get my point.Oh, well enough about 1st period! I gotta go study! |

Platform: Like I said, it was good! So if Rhi's the campaign manager, what do I do?  [politically perplexed] |

I don't care too much for the title - I'll take whatever position in this campaign that you would like. As long as I have the power, like I do now, to whisper something in your ear and hear it repeated to the masses from your mouth...

[oops, did I confess that out loud?] One of the Chief Advisors? Sure, that's fine with me. I read that book myself, and I'm just curious, how are you gonna overcome the part where you're supposed to grow a mustache and twirl mischievously? |
