THIS is funny.  I don't want to listen to Punk much these days, but it doesn't mean i can't take it, I just don't care for it much.   :smile: 

However, one must always consider one's "audience".  Are you trying to offend THEM?  It's just food for thought.

Pretty good question.  I kinda dig that.

True-yer not gonna get across to a buncha yahoo rednecks or upper class rich white folks with punk rock-it basically is just jerking off. It makes you feel good-but in public to others-yeah-old early 80's bands like DOA aint gonna convince-or even get noticed-by kids who listen to radio freindly watered down" hip hop" and Taylor Swift crap. Which bears no resembelance to the real thing. Modern music on the radio is pussified.
Yeah-their preaching to the converted.  :lookingup:
NOW-if we can get some dumb redneck anthem or such going against him-eh?  :twirl:

All right, muthafuggers, here is the once and for all answer to the original question posed on this meandering topic.

Are you ready, Springfield? I say ARE YOU READY SPRINGFIELD???!!!!

The answer is..... it should be resolved by lottery. Yes, lottery. Whoever's name is drawn at random from among 200,000,000 potential candidates, serves. Instead of Publisher's Clearing House showing up on your lawn with humping big check, the Chief Justice comes and shoves a Bible at you and next thing you know, wham, straight to the Oval Office.

Bill Buckley proposed something similar for Congress, let's try it on the Presidency.

Furthermore, if they refuse to serve we shoot them and draw again. If their approval rating dips below 40% we shoot them and draw again. We beat them if they fail to satisfy, and shoot them if they actively displease.

Problem solved. I am so smart today I impress my lil ol self. Now to tackle that pesky immigration crisis before moving on to energy and world peace!

This is a really good plot for a horror/thriller - similar to The Hunger Games :)

[I might use this idea...]

You guys remember the Moral Majority, and how instead of just not clicking on a forum, um, I mean a TV show, or seeing a movie, or reading a book, they'd protest it instead, in effect saying, I don't want to be involved in this, so I don't want you to be able to either?

Those guys remind me of the idiots who banned TV in South Africa until 1975  :tongueout:

Instead of leaving people alone to express themselves, they'd try to be controlling and ruin other people's fun? People like that bug me. If something offends you, don't participate, and don't belittle other people who are doing something. I guess they thought they were being witty trying to control others that way. I suppose the ghost of Falwell still lives on in 2016.

I've always thought it was annoying when some 'mother's group' wanted to ban Married with Children because they didn't like the content but the first thing came to my mind was - BE A FREAK'N PARENT AND TURN THE CHANNEL OFF IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR KIDS TO SEE THE STORY.

I've always thought the worst thing Hollywood did was adopt the Hay's Code. (Sorry but I don't understand what this has to do with the Presidential Tread)
