In this political season, you may be looking for a candidate that represents your view of the world. Well, I have a candidate for you. Here are just a few planks from a platform that stretches far and wide:
-- Regulate heights of trampolines;
-- Memorial for those lost in the trampoline "incident";
-- Shutting down underground shooting range;
-- Free cookies at every street corner;
-- One school for every student; and
-- Require flattering mirrors in public restrooms.
Yes, Leslie Knope speaks to all of those concerns that others may think are daffy. And while she is only running for a position on Pawnee, Indiana's city council, she may have higher aspirations down the road. Given who we already see running for president, I would say she is pretty "electable." For more on this fascinating campaign, visit Knope2012. And for a terrific program that will keep you laughing from start to finish, try out an episode of NBC's Parks and Recreation. (I bet you thought I was going to say the Republican debates.)
