Chistopher for President

Eindelijk wat goed nieuws. Een van mijn favoriete acteurs, Christopher Walken, gaat proberen president te worden van de VS in hetjaar 2008. "Our great country is in a terrible downward spiral. We're outsourcing jobs, bankrupting social security, and losing lives at war. We need to focus on what's important-- paying attention to our children, our citizens, our future. We need to think about improving our failing educational system, making better use of our resources, and helping to promote a stable, safe, and tolerant global society. It's time to be smart about our politics. It's time to get America back on track." Wie kent nu niet de beroemde scene uit Pulp Fiction waarin Captain koons het horloge van Butch's vader komt terug brengen nadat hij het een aantal jaren in his Ass gehad had. The way your dad looked at it, this watch was your birthright. He'd be damned if any of the slopes were gonna get their greasy yellow hands on his boy's birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide something: his ass. Five long years, he wore this watch up his ass. Then when he died of dysentery, he gave me the watch. I hid this uncomfortable piece of metal up my ass for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you. Betere rollen heeft Christopher natuurlijk gehad in The Deer Hunter en A View to a Kill. Mijn favoriet is absoluut King of New York. Waarin Christhoper Frank White speelt, een voormalige drugs dealer die net uit de gevangenis komt en de gehele onderwereld in New York op zn kop zet door erg voortvarend te werk te gaan. Trailer.

Join our 'Spread the Word' campaign and let your friends, family, peers, and coworkers know that they can make a difference. Forget the run-of-the-mill special-interest bureaucrats from capitol hill and cast your vote for a man who answers to no one but the people. With your help, we can kick-start the Walken campaign before his opponents have their boots on. For your convenience, you may use the letter below to get the word out and start people talkin' about Walken. To: Friends, Family, and my fellow Americans Subject: Get America Back On Track! It's not too early to be thinking about the future of this country and who's going to lead it. Election after election we're given the "choice" between two unappealing candidates and have no choice but to vote for the one we dislike less. But now, that's about to change. Stepping up to the forefront of politics is a new type of leader, motivated by his love for his country, not special interest groups. His distinct image and captivating voice you already know, and now it's your chance to make him the leader of the people, for the people, by the people. That's right... Christopher Walken is running for President. Now, at this early stage of the campaign, is when the grass-roots voters like us can really influence the candidates we'll see in the elections. So take a few minutes to visit the Walken 2008 Home Page at http://www.walken2008.com, read about the man and his ideas, and send them a message of your support. This is how the system should work, and now's your chance to have your voice. Don't let it slip away! Sincerely, -A caring citizen
