McKodos has many superficial things going on for him: POW, old, experienced, a sly fox that knows which chords to strike with which of the gullible. He is just as statist as Hillary, but tends to humble himself talking about how old and war-scarred he is, currying pity with the stupid that cannot see through the veil and realize that he is anything but humble.
All that being said, the electorate should know better.
