Monty Python Election Woes
'Oo does 'e think 'e is?
I am your president!
Well I didn't vote for you!
Idiot, you don't vote for presidents.
Well, 'ow'd you become president, then?
*Cue magical-sounding music*
The Electoral College, its arm clad in the purest shimmering BS held aloft the vote from the bosom of the populace, signifying by divine providence that I was to carry the presidency. That is why I am your president!
*Cut music*
Listen! Strange colleges lying in states distributin' votes is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from the masses, not from some farcical polling ceremony!
Be quiet! Well, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some outdated system threw a vote at you! Shut up! I mean, if I went 'round saying I was an emperor just because some old-timed bint had lobbed a poll at me, they'd put me away! Shut up, will you? Shut up!
Ah, now we see the apathy inherent in the system. Come see the apathy inherent in the system! Help, help! I'm being repressed!!
*FIN*
