1960 - remembering howdy doody running for President in the 1948 and 1952 Presidential elections.
I vividly remember how Howdy Doody LOST to his opponent in 1948, but still became President (because of an arcane Constitutional Amendment, that was written to appease the BIGOTED SLAVE owner states, which was done during the writing of the Constitution - they would not have joined the Union).
Howdy was a HORRIBLE President, during the period of Jan, !949 - Jan, 1953. He was ALWAYS WHINING that EVERYTHING bad that happened - it was never his fault. He falsely accused his opponent of being guilty of the things that Howdy was in reality guilty of - TRANSFERENCE, in psychological terms.
November 1952, Howdy lost by over 8 million votes, and also lost the Electoral College, but his HENCHMEN (Clarabell the clown - the former mayor of NYC and Princess Summerfall Winterspring (dishonorable and future-to-be DISBARRED attoney) were able to rally CORRUPT members of Congress and the military to stage a COUP.
And, the rest of the story is HISTORY!!!!!
Does any of this imaginary story sound familiar?
