"Let's Get Loopy" or maybe "Ride the Loop" ?

So, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper has joined the fray.
Let’s pretend we are on his campaign staff tasked with picking his main slogan.
I think you play off of his unusual name and have fun with it to make him stand out.

Your thoughts?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

It's going to be up to Hickenlooper to make his name mean something, not anyone else.

Governor Frackenlooper. That came about from him drinking Halliburton fracking fluid to show us how good and safe fracking is. I think he's great but I don't see him and his ties to fossil fuels to be what we need at this time.

is that a very popular natural oil for cosmetics and food consumption is primo for fracking. I likely drank a composition which had that oil as a major component.

I believe that any Governor that actively tries to shut down a major industry in the state is headed for trouble. I prefer to rate him on how well he nurtured along alternatives to petroleum, and from what I read, he did an excellent job in that area also.

I like the image of a person that struggled with failure (laid off Geologist), renewed (started up his own brewing company, succeeded (grew that brewing company into a local player), moved on to tougher jobs and did well.

I honestly see no one else in the democratic field except maybe Biden and Warren that have competitive resumes.
