Hard to say. What's his plan for improving the economy, creating jobs, saving SS and Medicare? Just cause he's large, yellow and lives on Sesame St. isn't enough of a reason to vote for him. Of course, some people think having an (R) or (D) after a candidate's name is a good enough reason to vote for them, so maybe being a Muppet is reason enough.

Never been a big fan of big bird. Personally I would prefer the Count who loves to count or maybe a tri partisan deal with Ernie, Bert and the Cookie Monster in a coalition....

Just 3 things every American has gotta know:

1. Has Big Bird been faithful to his wife?
2. Does he believe in the bible literally?
3. Does he give amazing speeches that make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside?

If the answers are all 'yes', I can assure you he will prevail victoriously!

I adore Big Bird. He has a warm heart, is earnest and empathetic, believes in cooperating with everyone (including that grumpy Oscar), and has a working conscience.

As much as I think the Count would be exemplary regarding budgetary issues, I suspect he would not be eligible...he appears to be foreign born. He'd make a great Treasury Secretary.

The real problem with the US is that our two political parties have declared war on each other with the American people suffering the collateral damage. Our republican congress has refused to work with President Obama like a bunch of school children throwing tantrums to get their way. This congress has allowed the American people to hit the bottom for the sole purpose of ousting a president. Millions out of work, 48 million without medical insurance, and the homeless growing by leaps and bounds and congress fiddles. These elected officials, all of them, need a dam good kick in the ass.

Next election I would be happy to vote for Big Bird. I am glad to see BB is leading the vote here because that means more and more people are realizing the truth.
