Jello Biafra for VP?

[ButterflyBlood]

look at it this way, there'd be record youth turnout!

Former Dead Kennedys singer for those not familiar.

3. Great idea!

Of course, Mr. Biafra has endorsed Kucinich*, and his opinion of Kerry is about what you'd expect:

"I think John Kerry missed his calling," Jello Biafra says by phone from San Francisco. "Now that Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing aren't making those low-budget Dracula knockoffs, they need a new one. And FrankenKerry would've been perfect! I can't get it out of my mind that he voted for the Iraq war, and he voted for the Patriot Act."

Then again, taking the veep slot would be so anti-punk rock that it would come full circle and be totally punk rock, so I think he might go for it.

7. He can be DK's VP

[CalebHayes]

8. Sorry, to far left. take a look at his page for pres, read the platform.

[markjs]

10. He is too far left.

Agreed. Though I'd love Jello as VP, I have to confess I am not willing to risk an election this important on it.

[fujiyama]

9. Yeah

Maybe for Nader.

[NoPasaran]

11. Ralph can choose whoever he wants n/t

[mitchum]

12. Since his heyday was 20 years ago, how could there be "record...

youth turnout"? Hell, why not just run Richard Marx or Tommy Tutone?

And he has a REALLY annoying voice

[Tom Rinaldo]

13. Absolutely. Kerry needs to balance the ticket...

with more "gravitas" and foreign policy experience. Biafra as a last name? C'mon, you can't beat that, foreign AND grave. Plus Biafra has the added advantage of not being a Republican.
