What would you all think about supporting Evo for president? :D

As her campaign manager, I urge you all to support Evo.

EDIT: Here's a list of things Evo supports. Maybe you do too!

Evo is a cat person, but she loves dogs too.

Evo supports science in all its forms, and is against false "sciences" like creationism.

Evo believes that education should be free for all. But everybody who doesn't get good grades by drinking and slacking off should pay for it
themselves.

Evo says no to drugs.

Evo believes that the poor, disabled, and students should receive free health insurance.

Evo believes that the poor, disabled, and elderly should receive a useful and secure Social Security and Medicare.

Evo thinks marriage should be between any two consenting adults.

Evo will ensure that shows like American Idol and Jersey Shore receive low ratings. They will be banned.

Join Evo 2016. Because if not, you will be banned!

Support evo or be banned.
 
Is she a GOP candidate
 
Independent
 
Does she approve this message ?
 
I support Evo for president of my own free will and without being coerced in any way.
 
No "No!" option? Too much interventionism for me.
 
I am also voting for Evo without being coerced or threatened with any sort of banning or having my house burnt down.
 
I didn't realize Evo was stepping down.

Would you support Evo?? (poll)
I would, but I live in the UK, where presidents don't exist and there are only prime ministers. So I'm putting no. :devil:
EDIT: Oh wait, that option doesn't exist. I'll put yes then.
DOUBLE EDIT: Would she be called "Evo" on the ballot paper?
TRIPLE EDIT: I searched "Evo president" on google. It came up with this.

This thread is great (some would say comic relief) for the cough... serious primaries and lack of good candidates for consideration, cough... cough...

P.S. There are no hidden meanings in my use of cough...'s.

Let's not get greedy. I'll be content to ride a pony if Duke has a unicorn to ride.

I'll vote for Evo if they keep her away from the nuke button. Just in case she has the urge to ban China or Iran, or whatever.
