Wait, don't run away.
This isn't a candidate diary. It's not even a test.
If this had been an actual candidate diary, you would have been instructed where to tune in your area for news and official information. Or you could just hide under your desk until the diary was over.
This diary exists only to ask the following questions:
Who is the greatest man in America?
And why are we letting a bunch of Canadians answer that question for us?
So how about it?
Who is the greatest man in America?
Is it John Edwards?
Nope. He's a great guy, and I'd be proud to have him as my President. But the greatest man in America? Well, not according to a certain group of Canadians.
How about Barack Obama?
Well, he's also a great guy. And I'd be proud to have him as my President, too. But does that group of Canadians think he's the greatest man in America? Not even close.
Well then, what about Bill Clinton?
Yep, I was darn proud to have him as my President. Voted for him twice, too. But those Canadians don't think he's the greatest man in America either.
So, who does this picky group of Canadians think is the greatest man in America?
That's right, it's Rush Limbaugh.
Now, I know what you're probably saying to yourself, once you finished wiping that mouthful of coffee off your monitor...
"Who are these Canadians, anyway? And are they really that stupid?"
I'll answer the second question first: no. They aren't that stupid. They are pretty darn funny, actually.
But who is this group of Canadians? They are Moxy Fruvous, a witty and original musical group from up north who were freakishly popular in Canada in the late 90's and early 00's. Most of us American music snobs just missed the boat when it came to Moxy Fruvous. If you happened to catch them at a live show, you saw something really special.
As for why they thought Rush Limbaugh was the greatest man in America, well, I'll let them explain it:
Rush Limbaugh. The greatest man in America. Who'd a thunk it?
