The Art of Saying Nothing

#1: WHO is this man?
#2: What the hell is he saying? (Optional)
Winner gets a dream-colored tamale.
Update: The fun of the game is to see who knows, remembers, or can figure it out! Which means someone who can guess or who knows without Googling the text beats out a full house, a royal flush, and somebody who googles the text.
UPDATE tha 2nd: Heraclitus (Jeff) is the winner! The nattering nonsensical quote was spoken, indeed, by Mister Dan Quayle, who also once said:
I was recently on a tour of Latin America, and the only regret I have was that I didn't study Latin harder in school so I could converse with those people.”
One dream-colored tamale sent via microfiche on its way!

Who He Is: Someone who's really bad at public speaking! (His voice reminds me a little of Dubya, so maybe it's Dubya's daddy H-Dub?)
What He Said: Does he even know?
*reaches for tamale*

I have no idea, but listening to it four times made my head almost asplode. Sadly, it's what a political leader would sound like if I were her/his speechwriter ;)
dream-colored tamale? - as long as it was kept as far away as possible from wax paper, i'm game.

Heraclitus (Jeff) dijo:
I have a feeling that I'm going to think it was obvious once I hear it. I'd guess Dan Quayle. Slight drawl, somewhat shrill delivery, not exactly silver-tongued.

Sylvia dijo:
Yay, Jeff! You'd think Quayle'd be an obvious choice because he was rather notorious for some of his speaking faux-pas. But in this administration, there are so many runners-up...

Hey, thanks. And don't forget about Reagan--"I just returned from a trip to South America, and you, you'd be surprised. They're all separate countries down there."

christ on a stolen motorbike. you'd think a man elected president would be utterly ashamed to admit such ignorance. but then again, this is america, where so many think that contempt shown for others is a sign of strength...

Rafael dijo:
Praetors and Patricians need not concern themselves with the business of slaves, they do not need to know how they toil or sweat, where they come from or what language they speak, only that they work for the glory of Empire.
