So NBC ran this commercial near the end of the Olympics about one more race and how an American would win and how the whole world would be watching and how it would be exciting and stuff, and they were basically talking about the upcoming Presidential Race as if it were a part of the Olympics. But that got me thinking. Why don't we actually have a presidential race? I mean, we have debates and mudslinging and things. Why not throw in a foot race? It wouldn't decide anything, but it could sway a voter one way or the other?
And I nominate racewalking as the race. That or the Three-Legged Race with their VPs.
Good idea, but impossible this time around. McCain is likely enough to die of a heart-attack without running for 100 meters. That would be the closest Obama would look Usain Bolt, he could run that whole race with his arms waving to the crowd.
