To: The Official Arbiters of Campaign Attire

Please consider that patriotism is an action and that wearing patriotic colors does NOT imbue a person with patriotism.  A red tie, dress, or sweater will never convince me a person is dominant or powerful nor will wearing blue persuade me to believe a person supports peace, is intelligent, or is trustworthy. In fact, have you noticed that W favors pale blue ties?

Also, the lapel pin flag, the red or white or blue earrings, bracelets, scarves must go—-now! I supppose the pin could stay if candidates openly acknowledge where the pin was manufactured and how that relates to the person’s stance on illegal immigration (perhaps build a wall to prevent those little flag pins from fluttering into the USA), NAFTA, and the unparalled growth of China and India.

Wearing patriotic apparel won’t make me a patriot anymore than standing in a garage will make me a car! However, wearing a spacesuit might make you an astronuat if I help you reserve a seat on Virgin Galactic’s Spaceship2!!!!
