Am I sounding like a conspiracy theorist?

Did anybody think that perhaps President Obama made those comments about the People’s Republic of Cambridge police force from some run-in he had with them back when he was at Harvard Law?

Who is this guy? And why does he think he can be President?

I used to think that if W can be elected, then any schlub could actually make Leader of the Free World.  However, since Obama was elected, I realize I don’t hold a torch to him.  He went to Harvard.  So did I.  But he went to the University, where I went to the Tower Records and Out of Town News in Harvard Square…I don’t think they come out to be the same thing.  But Obama has great ideas, and so do I.  So I figure I have a good decade or so to polish and prep.

While it seems like the President takes a beating every day in the news, it can seem like a thankless job.  But the perks, including a salary much higher than what I’m making now, are great.  Private plane, house staff, and if Obama doesn’t rip it out, your own bowling alley!  So could you say I’m pursuing this for the money?  Well, it’s not bad work if you can get it.

My goal here is not necessarily to plot out policy and election strategy, but to throw out ideas, give alternate views to things going on.  No heavy lifting here.  And more often than not, try to get away from politics, as we need to take a step back, and have a laugh from time to time.  As always, take everything with a grain of salt, as there’s at least three sides to every story.

Oh, and me?  I grew up on Long Island.  I went to school in Boston, where I ran for Hall Council President (where I stole the name of this blog), winning the second time around.  Upon graduation, I’ve been up and down the east coast, finally settling down in the great state of Delaware.  I’m a die-hard Yankee fan, and a huge baseball fan in general, having been to over 20 MLB stadiums so far.
