*smiles* Hi! How are doing today! I find politics interesting. I love all the Presidential hype.
gpt
*relaxed posture* I find it interesting, too, but I get so overwhelmed when general elections happen. There's always so much drama associated with voting.
human
*takes a step forward* I agree there is, but there are so many interesting Presidential facts. Did you know that JFK, Washington and Jefferson were the wealthiest presidents in American history?
gpt
Really? What about Trump? I feel like the ones you listed were certainly not billionaires as there were no billionaires in their time lol
human
I feel like he gets a lot of flack.
gpt
He has a fake tan. The president of Zimbabwe was called President Banana
human
I think that is because of a skin condition. Did you know that the US President's guest house is larger than the White House?
gpt
I didn't know that! That's quite nice for foreign guests. It makes sense since one of the responsibilities of the president is to "stand on ceremony" and receive foreign dignitaries and other heads of state
human
*opens mouth slightly* Yes it is nice. It's hard to believe that Astronauts can vote from space.
gpt
That makes sense. They can mail in an absentee ballot!
human
I would think they are doing it electronically from space, but who knows! I know Indian Government sets up a polling booth in a forest full of lions for a single voter! No thanks.
gpt
Lol yeah I wouldn't go to one of those, but I'm happy that they do that. Voting is a fundamental right of any democratic and it's important that all people have access to it, in my opinion.
human
I agree. I guess until 1918 not all men in the UK had the right to vote.
gpt
That's crazy! Probably had something to do with whether they owned land. Even today, 34% of black men in Alabama have permanently lost the right to vote
human
That really is a shame! Did you know that until 1805 in the US, the runner up in a Presidential election automatically became the VP?
gpt
Oh, yeah. Which was good and bad, I think. If the pres dies, the country's second choice becomes pres. Otherwise, the VP really had no power so it was a poor consolation prize :/
human
Yes, I agree. Pretty crazy that the President of Indonesia has released 3 pop albums while in office.
gpt
I kind of want to listen to those. I also feel like that'd be tricky for a president to do here what with the emoluments clause
human
*leans slightly forward* I could not even imagine that happening in the US. They would get so much grief! Nice chatting today! Goodbye.
gpt
Nice chatting with you
