Head of State Page #2
I've met mosquitoes
with more force than you.
I'm tired of your little games,
tired of being your little secretary.
Here's the light bill. I didn't pay it.
Here's the cable bill. I didn't pay that, either.
And here's the bill for your car note.
I hope they take it!
Wait a minute, that's my car!
Wait, come back!
I hate that piece of sh*t!
waiting for you to quit acting like a child...
and act like a grown man
for a change, Mays!
I need to get on with my life!
I want a house, I want children!
I want to go on vacation!
You're horrible in bed!
I am tired of being-
I wish you would.
For the last time,
I'm not running for President.
I'm not crazy! Gaines was 20 points behind.
It's ten weeks to Election Day.
Damn it!
than to talk on a cell phone in a plane.
- What about Sanderson?
- That's a joke.
Lewis has been Vice-President
for eight years.
He's a war hero and Sharon Stone's cousin.
He can't lose.
- What about Mosley?
- Girls.
- Connelly?
- Boys.
- McMasters?
- Big boys.
So we concede the election to Lewis?
Nobody is talking about conceding,
Debra, but let's get real here.
We'll lose this one.
The thing to do is to set the party up
for the next election.
We need a candidate
that will put on a good show.
This isn't a circus,
it's a presidential election.
You can't just pick some guy...
to run for President.
It's unprecedented,
but if I put in a call to the party chairman...
we find a candidate, he'll back him.
Who will run a race
they know they can't win?
Who says he has to know?
What the...
What now?
No, not my bike!
When I went in there
I wasn't thinking about being a hero.
I was just trying to help Miss Pearl.
Miss Pearl.
Look at this! This is great!
This is America, see?
Little guy against the big guy,
corporations against the people.
Young versus old. What's better than this?
Give me a break!
I am going to run an alderman
for President?
He's not an alderman.
He's a hero.
- Who doesn't like a hero?
See?
You said we needed somebody
who can help the party.
Now, how in the hell
does this guy help the party?
I'm glad you asked.
The United States is changing.
America is changing.
Inside of 20 years, you know the numbers...
20 percent black,
21 percent Asian, 39 percent Hispanic.
The minorities will be the majority.
The smartest thing we can do...
is be the first party
to nominate a minority for President.
- How about a cripple?
- I don't think so, Charlie.
