One Caucasian to Lead Them All.

Annoyed by the MSM’s choice of Official Black Spokeperson position — it was always Jesse or Al — T. Coates decided the post should be filled democratically. (The winner, in case you were wondering, was Lando CalrissianBilly Dee Williams.)

Now, it’s white folks turn: Who will speak for them?

Morgan Freeman? Don Draper? Princess Leia? Galactus, Devourer of Worlds?

Rock the vote, y’all.

    That would clearly be Mr. Freeman. Leia’s got interesting hair (old version) and an awe-inspiring inability to produce on-screen chemistry (new). Freeman, on the other hand, has been the leader of the free world about seventeen times and God -*God*- at least twice, plus colonel, captain, brigadier general, doctor, detective lieutenant, regular lieutenant, sergeant major, judge, and some guy named Walter. (But wait.. has he ever been a POW?)

    You left out Stephen Colbert. He’s winning.

  • No. Although God is probably white, based on his sense of entitlement.
