“Just have Fred drive that old truck he went to work in everyday at the Senate, park in close as possible to the White House and say” I’m Fred Thompson and I’m running for President.”
Can’t he reword that somehow? Too many bad memories. Maybe you’re too young to remember that was Jimmy Carter’s catch phrase.
“My name is Jimmy Carter, and I’m running for President.
It’s been a long time since I said those words the first time, and now I’ve come here after seeing our great country to accept your nomination.”
