Campaign
Sparrow is a poet who has run for President the last 4 election cycles. In 1996 he ran as a revolutionary communist within the structure of the Republican Party and lived to write a book about it, “Republican Like Me”. A cross between Lenny Bruce and Stephen Wright, Sparrow doesn’t really want you to vote for him but he likes having a reason to speak on your behalf.
As a country we need Sparrow. We certainly don’t want him to run anything but we need him now, just as the 1850’s needed Walt Whitman, to force us to look at our political system with a new perspective. Sparrow speaks truth to those not in power, and if enough people listen power might have to pay attention.

More Vice-Presidential debate theses

I just found, on my tape recorder, more notations I made from the epic Vice-Presidential debate. (Incidentally, a President presides, but what does the Vice-President do? “Vice-preside”?) Here they are:

The Three Winks
BY SPARROW08 AT 9 OCTOBER, 2008, 5:22 PM
We all know about the Three Winks of Sarah Palin (from the Vice-Presidential debate).
The question remains: whom were those winks for? Though I am far from a Palinologist, here is my theory. In order, the winks were for:
1) The Lord Jesus Christ Himself
2) Sarah’s secret boyfriend (see “Who’s Sarah Pallin’ Around with Now?”, National [...]

In The Moment
I don’t suppose you would like to tell us your full birth name, would you?
sparrow is travelling on his campaign today
I think he’ll answer that- I can tell you- and as you’ll see in episode 4- he was named by Jennifer the Princess of Love.
I think his name full birth name is Sparrow For President. That’s why he’s running.
The Constitution doesn’t say anything about needing a “full birth name” to be President.
I think his full birth name is Sparrow For President. That’s why he’s running. What else you gonna do?
He’s not running for the presidency. He’s running AWAY from it.
Dear Xenophon,
How strange that you asked for my full birth name on the day of my birth — my birthday!
Suspiciously,
Sparrow
