The election for U.S. House for Oklahoma’s 3rd District will be contested by the Candidate, Timothy Ray Murray. I will be stating that his votes are switched with Rep. Lucas votes, because it is widely known Rep. Frank D. Lucas is no longer alive and has been displayed by a look alike. Rep. Lucas’ look alike was depicted as sentenced on a white stage in southern Ukraine on or about

Really?

Didn't Colorado just vote for a guy in the primaries that says Obamacare causes cancer, the president is possessed by demons, and say that Jesus would want good Christians to buy guns? Maybe I heard that wrong. I hope so.

Yup. that guy is now running for governor. We actually have a couple of those type.

Colorado Politics are going to be almost as interesting as Oklahoma the next couple of elections.

And on this particular political thread, I found the below:

It just gets better and better.

Of the two guys pictured on this site, Which would you more likely suspect of being some sort of "AI Robot" (well except perhaps for the "I" part of "AI")

Oh my, what an interesting site! I didn't even know about that vast conspiracy before.

For the bonus question, I'd be like to pick the first one as being A minus I.

Holy smokes! What a looney toon. Literally. As in, "What a cartoon caricature of a human being." I read the whole website, half out of a fascination that someone who is supposedly educated would not know how to spell, use a contraction, or use verb tenses correctly, and half out of a horror that such a sinister, evil, biased, and racist travesty could think he could get elected.

Let's hope the intelligent people of the world outnumber the stupid, because the crazy people are getting crazier.

This guy is at least a step above the Teabagger down in Mississippi who's screaming fraud, because blacks voted and tipped the scale for the Republican incumbent.

Blacks voted in Mississippi?! Well...doesn't that beat all.

Poor Timmy Rae Murray. It must have really hurt his ego to discover that the voters preferred a robot to him.

I've noticed that in American Election Campaigns, the campaign always seems to focus on Self, Self, Self. Very little is ever raised about political policies & how they could benefit the Electorate. Is this because of the maniacal ravings of those who seek power for themselves, or does that sort of approach really earn votes?

It's traditionally American to think we are personally great (hubris, to a degree, but also we have seriously impressive accomplishments of which the moon landings are one.) and that America is destined to be the greatest country on Earth. (Manifest Destiny) Of course, the Romans felt the same way themselves, as did the British when the Sun Never Set on the Empire. But I think it's more the culture of celebrity we have now. Being famous for being famous is an actual thing, if you can believe it, so politics is now more like a Hollywood movie and the candidates, actors.
