In an unprecedentedly crowded field, CV Rick is going to announce his Candidacy for President of the United States today at the Mall of America. Situated between the third floor Hooters and Bubba Gump Shrimp Restaurant, he'll broadcast from a podium constructed from bargain books swiped from Barnes and Noble. Carrying his announcement will be his personal portable FM scrambler network forcing all radio listeners within 200 feet to listen, preempting their regular stations, and proving his Media Mogul claim. He's optimistic that Mall Security will also carry his announcement over their internal radio network.
He's confident that his announcement won't go unnoticed in the field of 24,558,763, and his PACs which include, CV's Casino Blackjack Card-Counting Group and CV's Lottery Number Spreadsheet Analysis Group, will be in charge of raising the millions required for a successful run.
Attending his announcement ceremony will be anywhere from 3 to 10 of his closest bar buddies and whomever else falls for the "Carmen Electra's doing a Publicity Striptease on the Third Floor" political gambit. Genius marks this candidacy right from the beginning.

Hooters is on the fourth floor, Bubba Gump is on the third floor...your lack of MOA knowledge is astounding and can hurt your bid in the long run. Particularly, that fact that you won't which to way to run in order to escape mall security.

i was afraid you were going to declare your candidacy for a state position. i would have had to establish residency and all that.
now i don't. although i cannot normally support someone who stands near a HOOTERS, i'll make an exception in your case

Are Hooters and Bubba Gump contributing to your fund? Just wondering how you picked those two?
If elected, will you raise the minimum wage for everyone in America except for people who work at Hooters and Bubba Gump?
Not that people in politics would do anything like that.
