Mitt Romney: My family still wants me to run for president
CNN ^ | June 29, 2016 | Theodore Schleifer

Mitt Romney's family is still pleading for him to mount an independent bid for the presidency, the 2012 Republican nominee said Wednesday.

Romney, speaking to CBS News' John Dickerson at the Aspen Ideas Festival, said a son asked him as recently as Tuesday to do so. "My wife and kids wanted me to run again this time, interestingly enough," Romney said. "I got an email from one of my sons yesterday, saying 'You gotta get in, Dad! You gotta get in!' "

Well, that IS a lot of votes, but not enough. Your fellow Americans went with you once, Mitt, but it didn’t work out. Enjoy the rest of your life.

Here’s a good political joke:

A little boy goes to his dad and asks, “What is politics?”
Dad says, “Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I’m the breadwinner of the family, so let’s call me capitalism. Your Mom, she’s the administrator of the money, so we’ll call her the Government. We’re here to take care of your needs, so we’ll call you the people. The nanny, we’ll consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we’ll call him the Future. Now, think about that and see if that makes sense,”

So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what dad had said.

Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. So the little boy goes to his parents’ room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny’s room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed. The next morning, the little boy says to his father, “Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now.”

The father says, “Good son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about.” The little boy replies, “Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep poo.

Don’t listen to your sons, Mittster. Listen to your own good sense in your own sane mind.

“My family” wants me to run. MY FAMILY?! Well, loop-de-doo.. that is the lamest reason to run for President IMHO. “MY FAMILY”... The American People, Mitt... have said no. Now go away.

Is this the son who said that Romney didn’t really want to be President anyway?

I'm pretty sure that most of the rest of the country doesn't so just pack it in, Mitt.

Yeah, well, you know all those weirdos and losers who try out for American Idol who can't carry a tune in a bucket? They all have family who want them to audition, too.

Sometimes, Mitt, you gotta sit back and gaze into your Uma and your Thurman and aks yourself, "Am I being punk'd?"
