Let's just say Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama start a band
It's obvious she'd be on keyboards (she plays piano), and Barack would be on Guitar?

Edwards on drums (I think) and Biden on Bass.

Whaddya think?

4. Caucasians shouldn't play keyboards unless they're named Jerry Lee Lewis
Sorry if that sounds racist but it just doesn't work.

6. I agree...
...like white guys with barbed-wire tattoos around their arm, or white girls with corn-rows.

7. Keyboards or piano?
If we're extending this to piano, then of course you'd be wrong, because there are plenty of good white pianists. Bill Evans is a fine example of that.

11. It's not about being "good"
It's just that white people inevitably look like dorks when they play keyboards and/or piano.

24. But in a weird ways Evans' genius was rooted in a dorkiness
granted, dorkiness turned inside out...
That said, he remains cooler than me
(and most could be)
in a hundred lives

22. I forgot about Stewart
Anyone too ugly to be in the Stones gets on the list of white guys that can play keyboards.

21. (Mutilated) cow bell.
That's all the engineers would allow us to hear. And he'd be edited out of the single, of course.

12. No. It'll make Altamont look like a freaking tea party.
'Cause the fans will slaughter each other (if GDP is any indication).

23. The Candidates... sounds like a decent band name.
Question is, could they all march to the beat of the same drummer?
