Humble Howard

Headline News
New candidate enters race, promises nothing.
Late yesterday afternoon station H O W (honest open and willing) announced that Humble Howard will be running as a non-conformist for president of the United States on the newly formed Disbelievers ticket. He will be representing all of those discouraged voters who aren't exactly sure just what they want, but know precisely what they don't want.
During an interview on the (What's your platform home invasion show) hosted by let's stir some shit journalist Edgar Expose', Humble Howard summed it up during a grueling debate with the three other candidates. Humble Howard, who refused to participate in the heated exchange, simply approached the podium, looked Edgar Expose' in the eye and pulled out a roll of duct tape, which he preceded to tape over his own mouth. He then produced a banner that said "Closed Captioned." The studio audience rushed the stage, hoisted him on their shoulders and carried him out.
