Funny you should mention that:
some are wondering if this year's President Palmer isn't a fictionalized view of a future with Sen. Barack Hussein Obama in the Oval Office.
In the first four hours of the latest installment of the show, the younger Palmer, who is African American, has allowed terrorists to kill hundreds of Americans in smaller, but devastating terrorist attacks across the country for weeks, acted on faulty intelligence to cut a deal with the wrong terrorist, then cut a deal with yet another terrorist who may still have it out for America, almost sacrificed hero Jack Bauer at the hands of aforementioned terrorist baddy, and allowed a suitcase nuke to be detonated in downtown Los Angeles.
Some see comparisons between Obama's and the fictional Palmer's background: lack of experience, poor instincts, but great personal story, compelling appeal.
"It's just too convenient, and besides, Palmer's middle name isn't Hussein," says a Democratic staffer in the Senate, who laughed off the comparisons.
Amazing seasons 1 -3 had a black president. and the writers have said in interviews and the 24 insider that the storylines are 'near future, based in a fictional place similar to the US."
And, to be fair, one of my favorite friends there is blind and I take every opportunity available to make fun of that and we're still friends. That guy never fit there. He never got the spirit of the RKMBs. We're gonna keep an eye on the obits, see if he finally left or if he really did have a heart attack. 2,506,410.81 CAD Rack points
