Basic Photo Op Etiquette
How to properly stage a photo op at a famous black university (a.k.a., the Clinton way): give a brief speech emphasizing your relationship to the students, then join them for a nice plate of soul food at lunch.
How not to properly stage a photo op at a famous black university (a.k.a., the Bush way): cut off the students from the cafeteria, then tell them that they'll have to pick up a takeaway plate of chicken at the back of the cafeteria (which isn't evocative of a Langston Hughes poem at all) when the president leaves, which leads to a student-protest.
How to further fuck any chance of winning the support of these kids in the ass: Have your Secret Service representative go over to the head of the peaceful protest and tell him that there are snipers on all the roofs, prepared to fire.
Wow. I didn't think Bush could go lower than 2% when it came to support from African-Americans. He must be aiming for that coveted negative percentile.

Hi,
Just in case you miss a response to a much earlier post. I'm hunting down the rights for Once More with Feeling and I understand that you are hunting the rights to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. We may be able to help one another.

Thanks, Melissa. But I'm not looking for the rights to Hitchhiker's Guide anymore. I wish you luck in your search, though.
