I am officially breaking the cardinal rule of not talking about politics in a blog post.
This kid is worthy of everyone’s vote – watch Jack Aiello give this amazing 8th-grade graduation speech containing the best impersonations of Trump, Clinton, Obama and Sanders!! (see, 8th-grader-impersonates-obama-clinton-sanders-trump-and-cruz-in-grad-speech-video/)
Here’s the video! Enjoy!

So, do you think Jack’s Bernie Sanders impersonation is better than Larry David’s?
Of course, it was a Canadian friend who pointed this video out to me. Thanks Madeleine!

WTH? Let’s stay on point, shall we? Aren’t you a travel blogger. What’s next, a two-headed alligator?

on a plane?

Amateur videos like this annoy me. Why won’t people using their iPhones and similar devices learn that when making video recordings, always turn your phone sideways! This permits the full field to be recorded and not a “slim line” image. Getting tired of seeing amateur video on TV with those side bars filling up the screen and making seeing the real image quite difficult. So remember, turn your phone on its side when shooting your video!
As for the video content itself, I doubt even Bernie would laud today’s American school cafeteria meals of junk food! Pizza and tacos…yikes! This is where nutrition and bad eating habits are weaned in the US. UK chef Jamie Oliver has successful changed the school menus across the UK through his campaign to service real, nutritious food. Michael Moore’s latest doc shows what school lunches in France look like. Surely Bernie would be on a campaign for real food in the schools, not corporate crap!

Just a quick clarification as the version most of us likely saw on TV was not the one in this link and suffered from the bar syndrome.
Will Run For Miles says
Thanks for your comments David. If you have a better link, I’ll be happy to post it.

Hey, we see enough political stuff every where else. I would appreciate it if you didn’t clutter up BoardingArea with this stuff and stick to points and travel.
Will Run For Miles says
It’s just a fun post. sorry you don’t like it. It doesn’t NOT relate to travel as, interestingly, in the last few months, whenever and wherever I travel, people want to talk about American politics.(I generally tell them I refuse to talk about US politics, especially since they mainly want to tell me what a joke they all think Trump is and how they can’t understand how anyone would support him). In fact, as I mentioned in the post, it was a Canadian who brought this to my attention. This is a politically neutral post. No big deal.

Well, I am just delighted you did post this link, even if the quality wasn’t ideal and it is not about points, miles and traveling. I’d seen links to it elsewhere and ignored them, but when Will Run posted it I figured I really should take a peek. I laughed out loud and marveled at the talent of this young man, who had clearly been following the candidates and was able to write and perform such on point imitations. I took the food comments as more satire. This kid was really, really funny. I am a news junkie and this week has been hard. Between the massacre in Orlando and the latest news bulletins from the goings on in the Trump alternative universe. I sure needed to laugh.
One of the perks of having a blog is the freedom to write what you want to. If other readers are not interested, just don’t click on it! Personally I like the variation; better than the constant repetition we see when BA bloggers all write about exactly the same thing over and over.
