A chapter in the book Scenes

Scene at the Polls

by Bill Schott




Pons and his cousin Ned meet at a
 
voting booth.

 


 Ned: Who you votin’ for, Pons?
 
 Pons: I’ll vote for the best candidate.
 
 Ned: You have to vote for an American, Pons.
 
 Pons: What?
 
  Ned: Yeah, Candidatians  can’t be the president.
 
 Pons: You mean Canadians.
 
 Ned: Them neither. You have to pick one of our own.
 
Pons: All of the contenders are American citizens.
 
 Ned: No more Hattians like Osama.
 
Pons: You mean Obama.
 
 Ned: No, he wasn’t from the South.

 Pons: Wait. Osama Bin Laden and Barrack Obama are not the same people.  He isn’t 
           from Haiti; he’s from the U.S. state of Hawaii.
 
 Ned: What are you goin’ on about it for, Pons?  SEALs took ‘im out long ago.
 
 Pons: Osama, not Obama.
 
 Ned: Sounds like a campaign slogan. You know Osama can’t run ‘cause he’s not an
            American, he’s dead, and he’s about as popular as Jeb.
 
Pons: Okay, alright. Who are you voting for, Ned?
 
Ned: I’ll tell you, straight up, I’m votin’ for Bill Clinton.
 
 Pons: He’s not running.
 
 Ned: No need. His wife can do the runnin’. Bill can stay inside and run America.
 
 Pons: In what capacity? What position?
 
 Ned: Missionary?
