Eddie Murphy "The Distinguished Gentleman"
« on: March 03, 2008, 10:34:42 PM »
1992 movie about "A Florida con man uses the passing of the long time Congressman from his district who he just happens to share a name with, to get elected to his version of paradise, Congress, where the money flows from lobbyists. But soon he learns the nature of the game and decides to fight back the only way he knows how, with a con."

Here's a clip from the movie after Eddie Murphy wins the election (he campaigned on the issue of 'change'):

I guess fistful is the only one who sees that the 'substance' of Obama's campaign may simply have come from an old Eddie Murphy movie.  Yet millions of dumbasses across this country are voting for it, like it's real.   cheesy
