In a recent speech marking his progress on the road to the White House, Senator Obama thanked his family, supporters, and most importantly, his ipod, for enhancing his campaign with Learn How To Be President by Podcast.
“I was uploading some Metallica and I caught a glimpse of this podcast,” said Obama, ipod emblematically hanging around his neck. “LHBP-we call it for short.”
Learn How to Be President by Podcast is a 10-part course authored by late Secretary of State and 3-time Democratic Party nominee, William Jennings Bryan. The course encompasses basic strategic steps to run a good campaign, and includes speech templates based on the American Populist’s famous “Cross of Gold” speech.
Obama says the guidance from LHBP has enabled him to fire most of his campaign staff and spend the extra money on beach balls and those big styrofoam hands for participants to use at rallies.
“These rallies are fun, energetic, and totally for the younger crowd,” said Obama roadie, Mike Dumkill. “McCain’s too old for this kind of stuff, and if you think about it, he will probably be dead before any of his programs are put into place.”
But while Democrats are having their fun, Conservatives are using the opportunity to emphasize their contempt for Obama and really hit their political stance home.
“You can’t learn how to be president from a book. You have to fight in a war to show that you can run a country,” Republican candidate John McCain said during a recent interview. “What the hell is a podcast anyway? Sounds like something out of Invasion of the Bodysnatchers.”
To which Obama countered: “McCain can really use Learn How to Tell a Joke by Podcast.”
