Meet Presidential Sensation Deez Nuts

[Suburban_Guy]

Probably the best candidate out there in a sea full of chumps

Presidential Sensation Deez Nuts Is a 15-Year-Old Iowa Farm Boy - The Daily Beast

Deez Nuts, the Independent candidate from Iowa, is polling at 9 percent in North Carolina for President of the United States.

Sadly, Deez Nuts does not appear to exist. But Brady Olson does.

“When I heard about the Limberbutt McCubbins story, I realized I could,” Olson tells The Daily Beast.

Brady Olson is 15 years old. He filed to run for the President of the United States with the FEC on July 26 as Deez Nuts.

That should certainly spotlight how this election especially is a choice between a giant douche and a turd sandwich. But, then again, aren't they all?

A reasonably viable, moderate third party candidate could easily swoop in and take it.. But I can't think of who would fit that bill.

Yeah I heard about this this morning.

The nation should come together and elect some dude who drinks beer after his construction shift and plays fantasy football. Couldn't possibly do worse than what we've had for some time now. And I'm not taking sides, I'm talking Dems and Repubs.

I agree. Elect the average-Joe type of person

Last time I checked, one needs to be at least 35 years old to be President.

Now, someone might say, "So what?" in regards to the naturally born issue......but age is a lot easier to prove.

I agree. Shows you how crappy the field is this year.

Where's the "None of these candidates - select new pool" option when we vote?

Someone has to be 35 to be president.. But not to RUN for president.

He's really doing this to spotlight how dumb, in places, our election process is.. He can run, but can't serve if he wins.. So, if he were elected (Yeah, we're just speculating here, not gonna happen) his Vice President would wind up being the president.. If his VP were ineligible for whatever reason as well, it would automatically throw it to Boehner.

The interesting thing.. You only have to be 25 to be a representative.. So, technically, it's possible the Speaker could be ineligible.. And then it falls to the president of the senate.. Who could be underage.. Then it would go to cabinet members, but cabinet members would have been appointed by the previous president.

The odds of this are pretty much impossible.. But.. It's interesting to think about. Sort of.

Has anyone ever considered the origin of the or what term deez nuts came from? Here's a hint. Package check. Either people have no clue or they don't care. Just a sample of the potential origin.

Last time we had a presidential election, someone had actually entered Santa Claus as an independent in our state. They obviously had enough signatures and met the requirements. I don't think many folks knew, but since I always read the sample ballots i get sent, it gave me a good laugh!
