Apparently, we now have Jerry Lee Lewis as the Republican nominee.

Don't know if it actually happened this way, but at least in the biopic "Great Balls of Fire" I recall a scene where Lewis was expelled from a tour in the UK, and as he's leaving he exclaims to reporters, "England can kiss my ass!"

Sounds a lot similar to the foreign diplomacy skills of a certain 2012 presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
