"More cowbell in the White House!" (Walken for Prez? This has GOTTA be a joke)
Ramblings' Journal ^ | 8.15.05 | Michael King

Posted on 08/15/2005 5:53:33 AM PDT by mhking

I don't know if this is serious or not (I'm thinking not but stranger things have happened...), but considering that Christopher Walken is one of my favorite actors, it's at least a fun read...

I met him once, briefly, in NYC in '96
He struck me as sane, quite intelligent, remarkably keen sense of humor.
What's your take?

It is a joke. :) Something to do w/Walken's latest film...Wedding Crashers, I think.

I found the GenMay thread, plus this exchange at Wikipedia under the Walken entry:

No this is a complete hoax. CW has mentioned on a number of occasions he is not interested in politics. Here is a message that was on one of the Walken discussion boards

Date Posted: Aug 11, 05 - 11:51 AM Email: scrickle@gmail.com Email me if you have any questions

The Christopher Walken for President thing was made up by the members of the General Mayhem forums. They are planning an elaborate hoax that makes it look like Walken is running, including registering domain names and all that crap. They are not for real.

Again, THIS IS A HOAX.

Here are the links to the sites that they are building: http://www.walkenforpres.com/ http://www.walken2008.com/ http://winwithwalken.com/modules/news/ http://www.walkentomordor.com/

Walken2008@gmail.com is also active and monitored by genmay members.

See this link for the thread: http://www.genmay.com/showthread.php?t=562197&page=1&pp=50

He was on the boat with Natalie Wood? Wasn't her husband with her?

Very down to earth. Can be wacky...but that's a prequisite of living on the upper west side.

The first movie I saw at Henry Kaserne (Munich) in early 62 was "Splendor in the Grass." I was in love with Natalie Wood from then on.

Thanks. Mates with my (admittedly quite superficial) read on the guy. (he's the one who told me about "New York CPR" actually... cracked me up very VERY badly)

Tell you what, if Walken did indeed run, and it came down to a choice between him and 'Er 'Einous, I'd vote COWBELL in a heartbeat.

If Christopher Walken is elected president he will take care of our enemies the same way he did in "Dogs of War". With a street sweeper.
