Less Bad is better than More Bad

For a little fun, enjoy this video, narrated by Larry David.

It opens like this:

2008. A nation in crisis. Stock markets around the world are crashing…until an audacious young man named Barack Hussein Obama pointed America towards a new direction of hope. And now, four years later, that man can proudly say [record scratches]

And no, that’s not my spin. It’s exactly what Larry David says.

Enjoy.
