Dear Readers,<\/p>\n

It’s a new kind of politics so we’ve taken it upon ourselves to start the V.P. selection process. Citizen journalism is fine, but we’re going much further. We’re selecting you, gentle reader, to be the next Vice President of the United States. We’re really excited to get you on the ticket and to get to work on preparations for the general election.<\/p>\n

Let’s face it. You’re smart, savvy, and we’ve found in our polling that your positives are much higher than your negatives. Our media people are already working on a response for that stuff you did in high school, so that shouldn’t be a problem. They’re asking, though, that you stop wearing stripes. It’s just really not a good look for you.<\/p>\n

Our advance team will be giving you a call in the morning for a brief interview. Just a formality, but we need to get that out of the way. And think, free room and board at the Naval Observatory!<\/p>\n

Congratulations! We know you’ll do a great job!<\/p>\n

Your pal,<\/p>\n
