67. I first ran across him when he was a guest on with David Letterman

He seemed like a jerk, kept complaining about "the Mosque at Ground Zero," so I almost changed the channel. But then I watched Dave, who always claimed to know nothing about politics, proceed to straighten him out. Who could have imagined that anyone could possibly imagine that this jerk, with his bigoted attitude and no experience to speak of, could end up as president?!
