" How about a roadmap?" reading a map while driving is no better than texting.

They could have made a compilation video like that with just my wife's driving but it would have exceeded YouTube's duration limit.

“he’s still funnier than any other candidate in American history”
Not so fast Mr. Stein:
“Franklin D. Roosevelt’s humor and jaunty optimism kept America moving forward through the Great Depression; Jimmy Carter’s sourness depressed Americans through recession. Given the choice, Americans have elected the candidate with the better sense of humor: Ronald Reagan over Jimmy Carter; Mr. Reagan over Walter Mondale; George H.W. Bush over Michael Dukakis; Bill Clinton over Mr. Bush; Mr. Clinton over Bob Dole; George W. Bush over Al Gore; President Bush over John Kerry. It is no wonder John F. Kennedy had his team of speechwriters supply him with jokes during his 1960 presidential run.”
