You may have seen this before, but it's kind of neat!
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates:
Candidate A.
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with an astrologist.
He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8
to 10 martinis a day.
Candidate B.
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in
college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
Candidate C.
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, only
drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.
Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first ...
no peeking,
then scroll down for the response.
Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.
suzy, I knew the candidates were "real" people, but didn't couldn't pick who they were. Out of the three, knowing who they are, I'd pick FDR.
Just goes to show you that stupid stuff from a politicians past doesnt necessarily dictate how well they can rule.
8-10 martinis a day? I'm impressed. Though given how little there was in pain medication in FDR's day, I suspect there may have been some pain management going on. FDR, after all, had serious health problems...
