So, where would the President & VP go for a all-American restaurant now?

(Note:  The following conversation between President Obama and Vice President Biden is fictional… but it maybe happening now. You never know.)

Pres:  Joe, I’m pissed off at the idea that Burger King is merging with Tim Horton’s and moving their HQ to Canada.  How dare they try to take advantage of a lower tax rate?

VP:  So want do you want to do about it, Mr. President?

Pres: Joe, we have to find an all-American National chain restaurant that cater to progressive politician like ourselves but show the American people that we care about good old American values.

VP:  But Mr. President, I wanted to go to Nando’s tonight!

Pres: Joe, this is important!  How about we go to Chipotle?

VP:  Do you remember the last time we went there how you almost started a national incident by going over the food shield?  They told you never to come back!  Plus Chipotle is still 2 years away from getting rid of potential GMOs.

Pres:  Shoot, you’re right Joe!!  How about McDonalds?

VP:  With Michelle raging war against obesity & Happy Meals?  Plus that clown creeps me out!

Pres:  Good point.  Chick-Fil-A?

VP:  Homophobic.

Pres: KFC?

VP:  PETA still hates them for how they kill chickens.  You might as well cross Popeye’s off the list as well.

Pres: How about that new Mission BBQ place now opening up across the region?

VP:  They support the police, fire fighters, and the military.  Might not be a good look supporting police during the Ferguson crisis.  Plus, BBQ isn’t exactly healthy eating…

Pres:  Man, that takes out Red, Hot, & Blue and Famous Dave’s as well!  What about Arby’s?

VP:  Have you seen their new ads basically supporting gobs of meat?

Pres: I know, Denny’s!

VP:  They refused serving African-Americans many years ago.  Might as well go to Cracker Barrel or Bob Evans if you want to piss off your base.

Pres:  How about a Pizza?  Papa John’s?

VP:  Do you remember how Papa John fought you over Obamacare?

Pres:  I guess that also eliminates Pizza Hut, Olive Garden, Red Lobster, and Longhorn Steakhouse as well.

VP:  Heck, any similar chain restaurant from Applebee’s and IHOP to Chili’s to the Outback chain and even Friday’s can be eliminated!

Pres:  Joe’s Crab Shack?

VP:  This close to a seafood-loving state like Maryland?  That’s heresy!

Pres:  Wendy’s?

VP:  Dave Thomas—fat guy!

Pres:  Hardee’s?  Waffle House?

VP:  Too redneck-y!

Pres:  Golden Corral?

VP:  Have you seen the reports of their unsanitary conditions?

Pres:  Taco Bell?

VP:  Here a hint… The beef isn’t exactly beef.

Pres:  Buffalo Wild Wings?

VP:  Too many TVs!  Not green enough for my tastes.

Pres:  Five Guys?

VP:  Peanut allergies.

Pres:  Subway?  It’s healthy…

VP:  Their bread isn’t.

Pres:  Ruth’s Chris?

VP:  Too rich!

Pres: Steak ‘n Shake?

VP:  Do you see a Steak ‘n Shake anywhere near here, Mr. President?

Pres:  Perkins?

VP:  Nothing good can come from a visit there.  Ask Tiger.

Pres:  Friendly’s?

VP:  Will you be serious, Mr. President!!

Pres:  Well, shoot Joe, there really isn’t a place we can go as progressive politicians but show we can support an all-American restaurant!

VP:  (thinks about it for a second)  Well, there is ONE place we could go.  I hear Teddy (Kennedy) loved it!

Pres:  Really?  What?

VP:  Nah, it might not be a good idea…

Pres:  Joe, I’m desperate here.  I’ll take anything.

VP:  All right, but I don’t like suggesting it.  Hooters.

Pres:  HOOTERS?

VP:  Yes, Mr. President.  Hooters.

Pres: (thinks for a moment)  Screw it, I’m hungry for some wings anyways.  Let’s go, Joe!
