Today,
I announce my candidacy for President of the United States, and the formation
of the SODA (Screenwriters and Other Disadvantaged Americans)
Party!
Join the SODA Party |
If
elected, I will represent all screenwriters and Americans who can’t get their
scripts read or otherwise can’t make all of their dreams come true. It’s not well known that screenwriters suffer
more than the average American and should preside over the Victim Class of our
nation
My competitors:
Like
many Americans, I am dissatisfied with our current slate of candidates. They
look like characters from a movie comedy. Wouldn’t you agree?
Donald
Trump – If he’s elected, numerous countries may not allow him to cross their
borders. If Mexico does build a fence
(as he said Mexico would), it will be to keep him out. Besides, my hairdo looks better than his,
don’t you think?
Ted
Cruz – He should run for Prime Minister
of Canada.
Hilary
Clinton – If she’s elected, her husband Bill Clinton will be the First Lady,
further confusing the gender issue. Also, she may have connections with Hell,
since women who don’t vote for her will (allegedly) go there.
Crazy
Uncle Bernie – the USSR candidate – if he’s elected, we’ll become a socialist
state, which may not matter since we are practically there already. Instead, elect Crazy Uncle Dave (me).
Marco
Rubio – I’m trying to get him to switch parties and be my running mate because
I know just what to make him say. Stay tuned for an announcement from him.

Drink to SODA
Our
SODA Party Song will be “Don’t worry, be happy” and our SODA Party drink will
be soda, naturally, or natural soda.
Perhaps just that alone will induce you to join the SODA party and
create a three-party system in our country. However, what should really
convince you are my qualifications.

My qualifications
I
am not political plus I believe in God, the environment, and the quadratic formula.
Virtually
everyone can vote for me because I am multicultural and have a diverse family
heritage: English, Irish, French, German, Danish, and Scottish. My wife is Southern and I promise to wear
Hawaiian shirts in the Oval Office.
Need
more proof? I favorably reviewed the movies “Dances with Wolves” and “The Color
Purple” and have mentioned them in my book (The
Screenwriter’s Bible, available at Amazon.com). Plus, if elected, I promise not to blow up any countries
in the world except maybe North Korea…and one country to be named later.

Finally,
if that is not enough, I speak Spanish: Hablo espaƱol, mis gran amigos. Por
favor, votan por mi y siguen viviendo. (Translation: I speak Spanish, my great friends, Please vote for me and keep living.)
How do I order "Dave is my Fave" 2016 campaign buttons? Seriously. -Wisconsin Mary
ReplyDeleteThey've been ordered and are on a slow boat from China. :-) Seriously, if I ever make any, I'll make it known to all of my constituents. Thank you for your support.
ReplyDeleteMayor Bloomberg was famous for his campaign to limit the size of soda drinks people could purchase in New York City. What is the SODA party's position on limiting my freedom to choose the size of my preferred soda beverage?
ReplyDeleteSODA will not infringe upon your right to pursue soda happiness.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely join the party.
ReplyDeleteI am bound by blood to vote for Dave. Which is as good as any reason for voting for the Hill or the Don. I am confident that he will deliver on all of his campaign promises or he won't.

Men as wise as you are what America needs. God bless America, you, and especially me.
