I'm Running For Congress On A New Platform - I'm Corrupt / Give Me Money

My platform is simple.

Give me money, and tell me what you want, and I will send you an IOU.

You can cash it in once I am in office.

The people that send me the most money get their favors done first.

Don't delay!

Vote for me!

Think it will work?

Not the other way around.

I would expect that they usually don't get money from the corporate donors, etc, until they are actually in office.

it would be funny to have someone be like a Sat night live character run and be obviously corrupt but once they get in act like the distinguished gentleman - funny to think about but not implement

yknow if you look at the polls - most of America seems to be on the right track - how come our representatives dont reflect the same?
