My (Well Thought Out) Solution to the Presidential Stalemate


I was thinking. At this point there is no perfect solution to choosing ONE winner so that everyone is satisfied. So here's some alternate solutions that make sense to me (and probably to Andy Rooney).

OPTION 1:
How about a co-winner? President Gorebush? Good solid (albeit slightly intimidating) name...that's not all bad, though. Maybe Saddam would even respect our President more.

President "Bush" is just too lightweight anyway. Needs spicing up.

Or we could give the electoral winner the first part of the last name, so if Bush wins, we use President Bushgore. Ya, that's fair.

2) Another idea - anybody see the movie "Face Off"?
Maybe we could have them at least swap faces to give those voters on the losing side some satisfaction. You know, to help them SAVE face?

3) My favorite: Al gets to run the country on M-W-F and half on Sunday while GW is in church. If both go to church (likely the case), then they alternate Sundays.

4) Here's a controversial one
Both Al and GW divorce their wives and marry each other. The Electoral winner gets to wear the pants.

Alternate: If a Gay marriage is too controversial, one of them (i.e. the one who did not win the Electoral vote?) changes their sex and name to Alberta or Georgia.

Albertina or Georgina would also be allowed.

5) Variation of #1. Show how superior we are in Genetic Engineering and actually extract the best DNA out of each man and create a third, superior individual that everyone can respect.
