Bishop Hill How odd!
Nov 3, 2009 Civil liberties Conservatives Americans have apparently started to chant the name of Daniel Hannan MEP at street protests. They are calling for him to be elected president.
The power of YouTube, it seems.

They can't have Hannan - we need him for Prime Minister in the 2020's!
I have a Hawaiian live birth certificate with Hannans' name on it- to whom do I send it?
Name on some placards yes. Spontaneous chanting, hmmm.... suspect Dougie Carswell's sources could be exaggerating a wee bit.
OK, I've tried to figure out who this character is.... and I'm not entirely uninformed.... I think someone is having a bit of sport here. I agree with Sera in the sense that simply releasing the damn birth certificate would end some of the nonsense.... but don't count on it. Kerry's grades at Yale were released after the election because they were in fact worse than Dub-yah's. Dub-yah was not dumb.... no Yale graduate is, but his apparent inarticulateness iseems to be legitimately acquired.... his Dad was no orator either. Oh, he constantly mispronounce "NU-KLee-ER"? Most Americans west of Pennsylvania pronounce it "Nuke-U-ler". It's a regionalism.... much like the difference in the way Americans and Brits pronounce "schedule".... Americans uniformly say "SKED-jule", Brits say "SHED-jule". I've noticed, however, than in the UK they still go to "SKOOL" and not "SHULE".
Given the idiocy of most Republican politicians, many American convervatives and libertarians are now regretting that we can't shanghai a 'furiner' for 2012.
Anyone in Boston could have told you Kerry was dumber than W -- W went to Harvard Law and Kerry went to Boston College Law,and none of the grad schools take 'legacies.'
