POLITICAL PARTY ANNOUNCES 2008 PRESIDENTIAL BID AT COMIC BOOK CONVENTION
March 16, 2007 (Los Angeles, CA)

At the unlikely venue of a comic book convention, a previously unheard of political group announced it will be putting forth a candidate for the 2008 Presidential Election. In a statement to the media a spokesman for A.A.R.G. (Association of Americans Returned from the Grave) stated that the group seeks to give a voice to a segment of the population not being addressed by any other political party – undead Americans.

But how can a new party expect to have instant recognition? AARG expects to overcome it’s newcomer status by bringing back popular former presidents... The AARG primary season kicks off giving voters the choice of Zombie Ronald Reagan, Zombie JFK, Zombie Abraham Lincoln and Zombie Nixon. All back from the grave to save our nation.

“These are all experienced US leaders with strong following both pre- and post- grave.” AARG spokesman Irving J. Rottingham said at the announcement at the Wizard World Los Angeles Convention, “We expect to see good poll numbers. Provided we can avoid any unfortunate brain-eating incidents on the campaign trail.”

The stated AARG platform includes issues vital to Undead Americans - such as jobs for the undead, discrimination against the formerly living, and the reversal of inheritance rights. “Most formerly living Americans rise from their graves only to find that everything they owned has been given away. They’re left with the clothes on their back. Discrimination prevents them from getting jobs, riding public transportation… no wonder so many turn to eating brains.” They believe that with legislation and government funding they can help this growing segment of the population integrate and become valued members of society again.
