      I know most of this conversation was over a year ago- but fish and ice cream were combined on "Iron Chef". Trout to be specific was used by Iron Chef Hiroyuki Sakai in a battle on "Iron Chef America" against Bobby Flay.

      So yes, I absolutely feel art and politics can mix. I just don't know that Republicans currently are creative enough to come up with their own positive images to campaign with. Satire is easy- but a striking positive image for your candidate is more difficult.

      No way can this man walk in Abe Lincolns shoes ! Abe was an honest God fearing man loyal to his country.

      This is your president !

      Is anyone out there awake?

      Everyone of voting age should read these two books: Don't buy them, just get them from the library.

      Dreams of My Father:
      Audacity of Hope:

      From Dreams of My Father: "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites."

      From Dreams of My Father : "I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race."

      From Dreams of My Father: "There was something about her that made me wary, a little too sure of herself, maybe and white."

      From Dreams of My Father: "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names."

      From Dreams of My Father: "I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself: the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela."

      And FINALLY .........
      and most scary:

      From Audacity of Hope:
      "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

      We CANNOT have someone with this mentality running our GREAT nation!!
      I don't care whether you are a Democrat , a Republican, a Conservative or a liberal,
      We CANNOT turn ourselves over to this type of character in a President.
      We have really put ourselves in harm's way with this monster in disguise!

      Incredible image, maybe a halfway decent but very elitist person, and a terrible president-absolutely not the leader we needed right now.
