I give up. All of the Democratic Primary Candidates [View all]

are the wrong candidates. We need a brand new, ideal, unifying candidate who will bring us all together in a peaceful coalition founded on friendship and humor. Let's draft Al Franken. He'd be perfect. Let's insist that he join the campaign and all of America will fall in line behind his candidacy and create a 50-state landslide victory for one and all.

Let's just toss the current list and run a successful satirist and Senator for President. IT'S NOT TOO LATE!!11! If we all come together, we can do this. Let's create a new website for this movement: StartOver2016.com

I'm all in!

Sincerely,

Mineralista Manbro
