Darth Vader was elected in 2008.
No, let 'em hang that on Cheney... it fits well enough. What did Vader ultimately do? He destroyed the power of the evil emperor and ushered in the rebirth of the Republic.
Yes - destroyed the Sith and brought balance to the force.
OK.
The idea is that Darth Vader is Luke’s father, and, that he ‘turned’ from righteousness. Neither fits The 0ccupant.
Screw Vader and the Jedi Order - Palpatine was THE MAN!!! He took over the whole universe with the Jedi surrounding him. Ok, Vader helped him, but, Palps was the brain behind that brawn, at least until the very end of ROTJ.
Dick Cheney = Darth Sidious (aka Palpatine) AWESOME!!!
