This is exactly why it's so important to be percieved by others as unimportant. There is a strong correlation between noticing and caring. If people see you as important, they've basically already decided to notice and care about you. In an emotionally mature society with well-boundaried egos, that can be nice, even essential to our well being. But in this society I would never choose to be important, noticed or cared about. Because I would be on chronic trial for whether I can inspire, affirm and excuse every single person's insecurities that I happen to trigger. And I'm far too insecure to accommodate that.

So true. It's funny how people do think personalities matter more than issues. We try so hard not judge candidates by who they are, but fall foul to it eventually. Kinda like with the British "Pasty Tax" (which is still a stupid idea from Parliament IMO). Cameron was so quick to not be disconnected from the masses on the count of being seen publicly as a toff. Well done Onion. Reminds me to think before judging a politician completely, though that's not to say they can all get away with it.

The worst part of these old videos from The Onion is that they seem that they could be real, that they are plausable.

This is why we need to start electing people we really know: celebrities. You ever seen Jake Gyllenhaal eating a sandwich alone? Natural born leader, absolutely pulls it off. I'd vote for him in a heartbeat.

Gyllenhaal would probably make a good leader. I like your choice. He's got my vote.

If this video was made today, the poll would show 50% of Americans thought it was how a true leader should eat lunch and 50% would be calling for impeachment.

I believe this is a reference to the photo of Keanu Reeves sad and alone on a park bench, eating some bread. The image sparked the introduction of "Cheer Up Keanu Day"

Shocked to see only 5% of people who saw this were real American patriots. Disagree with President Obama politicly if you want and I do, but this nation was damn near founded on the understanding that a free person can eat a big sandwitch if and when they chose to. Hateing the President for this is frankly disgusting and un-American. #IstandwithObamasandwitch #bigsandwitchloveitorleaveit #frommycoldcutcoveredhands
