(and he lost)
(and i was rooting for gore over bush in 2000)
(and kerry over bush in 2004)
(both losses)
(i was secretly rooting against obama in 2008 just because of the hipster swell of support)
(and my contrarian tendencies)
(and he won)
(by 2012 i was happy that obama was elected again)
(in 2016 i wanted hilary to win)
(just so we could ‘check off’ a woman as president)
(instead we got the ultimate macho ‘batman villain’ old man)
(which may work in my favor in 2020)
(i met him in 2006)
(when i was trying out for ‘the apprentice’ at the behest of my old man)
(in the midst of my ‘post-college haze’ in fall 2006)
(made it to ‘2nd round’)
(analyze psychological roots of ‘presidential voting patterns’)
every american president who won an election in a year ending in zero died in office…
(ended with ronald reagan)
(it’s a stupid superstition)
(“started” with william henry harrison)
