| ScrappleFace Editorial Board Endorses Barack Obama |
| 2008-10-18 |
| "Although the prospect of an Obama presidency, from a satirical perspective, represents a hopeful future of full employment, the editors of ScrappleFace cannot let their own needs stand in the way of the needs of the Senate, or indeed, of the people of the world." |

| #1 I am waiting for someone to endorse him solely because he is black. History, associations, promises, none of that matters, compared to the color of his skin. He may be as profoundly awful as Robert Mugabe or Idi Amin, but it doesn't matter, because he is a brother. This endorsement shows political maturity, because it addresses the one element of his life that he cannot change. Everything else is up for grabs. He may completely change his character, or evidence no character whatsoever. He might break promises, betray our national allies, embrace our national enemies, ruin our economy, enslave our people, and behave in an otherwise corrupt and abominable manner. But he cannot change his skin color. So that is the dominant, single reason why he must be endorsed for President of the United States. |
