My Name is Rasheed Hooda, and I Approve This Message

It’s election season. What else do you expect?

The up-and-coming superstar of ILLUMINATION, Zach J. Watson, reminds us that it’s the election season and it’s our patriotic duty to take part in this madness.

He was inspired, err, disheartened by all the negative campaign attacks, and decided to do something about it in the American Spirit.

He asked the writers on ILLUMINATION to take the negative template of the Political Ads, and turn it around to uplift fellow writers and tell the world why we should vote for, I mean, follow them.

Here is the (negative) six-step template:

  • Name of candidate (Ted Grapefruit)
  • The issue (Sleep problems)
  • “Evidence” of the issue (medical records)
  • Out of context quote (“I don’t care about sleep)
  • WHY you should vote for the other candidate (I will fight for you)
  • I approve this message

I would like to highlight Charles Roast as the King of humour and satire. He is not only one sick dude, but he can be a sentimental poet, as evidenced by this poem.

He is a top writer in satire. He also used to be the top writer in humor, but Medium can’t make up its mind. He says, and I quote:

It’s not really fair that I get all of this attention.

He is the undisputed King of ILLUMINATION that many have tried to dethrone and failed. Everyone must follow him — to where? No one knows.

My name is Rasheed Hooda, and I approve of this message.

Campaign team, assemble! I challenge Timothy Key, Helen Cassidy Page, Julia E Hubbel, P.G. Barnett, and Sherry McGuinn to positively highlight their fellow writers.

As always, thank you for reading and responding.
