For some of those traditionally marginalized in this country, a bit of good news! If you are one of about 19 million convicted felons, you can now hold your head up high and dream big, even attaining the highest office in the land.

If you are one of the hundreds of thousands of convicted sexual abusers, you too don’t need to worry about being shamed; rather, a political office is within your reach. And if you are annoyed by being detained by a law officer, as long as you are a peaceful patriotic tourist, you can show your displeasure by using mace, bear spray, Tasers, and beatings with a flagpole (affixed with American flag) on the offending officer without worrying about jail time.

And on the medical front, organ donors can now donate their spines, to fill the need for scores of cabinet members, senators and representatives, whose current ones are clearly defective and in need of replacement.
