11 Facts About Vermin Supreme
Marc Nozell

If you're an American old enough to vote, you've probably been experiencing a sort of sinking feeling over the past few months —something similar to being at a restaurant and wondering what to get. A restaurant with an extremely short menu and rather nasty food. A restaurant where not ordering isn't even an option. While I can't really help you with this mess, I can at least educate you on another Presidential option: Vermin Supreme! Here all the facts you really wanted to know about our best Presidential candidate.

1. Yes, that is his legal name.

He changed his name to Vermin Love Supreme in the 1990s. Unfortunately, an anonymous harasser has been threatening to reveal Supreme's birth name and personal info. The politician responded with this sassy letter.

2. He is registered as a Republican

But his actual political views are somewhere between Republicanism and Libertarianism.

3. He's a movie producer and actor

A documentary about him was even featured in the Minneapolis-St. Paul film festival in 2014.

4. He was once a nuclear disarmament activist

In 1986, at age 25, he participated in the Great Peace March for Global Nuclear Disarmament.

5. He's an art school dropout

While many politicians are law school grads, Supreme dropped out of a Baltimore law school and got involved with the city's underground music scene.

6. He wants to fight the United States' "moral and oral decay"

"A country depends on its ability to bite back," he states in a speech with more dentistry-related puns than you'd expect to hear in one place. Supreme's plan includes secret dental police, dental reeducation centers, preventative dental maintenance facilities, and government-issued toothpaste containing a harmless, addictive substance.

7. He admits that "a vote for Vermin Supreme is a vote completely thrown away."

The most honest campaign slogan yet.

8. He promotes a pony-based economy

Additionally, Supreme would provide a free pony for every American in order to create jobs and make the economy less dependent on foreign oil.

9. He is a proponent of a zombie-based energy system

Also to combat our dependance on foreign oil, Supreme promises to find an energy source in what he calls "the awesome power of zombies."

10. He finished fourth in the New Hampshire Primary

NOT BAD.

11. He once delivered his 30-second closing statement in song

I think everyone has secretly wanted to do this, but Supreme boldly ended his remarks at a presidential forum to the tune of the Chicken Dance.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
