My highly political experience

Lots of hubbub about the Presidential debate tonight. I saw the Presidential motorcade for the candidates today. I was out jogging whien I noticed there were police cars lining both sides of the street every block, so I decided to follow the trail to Belmont University where the debate was held. As the motorcade approached, two police cars scouted the trail first, followed by eight motorcycles, and two more police sedans. Something like twelve bulletproof vans rode the middle, most of them with 8 1/2 x 11 sign in the window announcing "PRESS." You could tell which vehicles held the candidates, because they were the ones with secret service agents looking nervously out the windows. Despite all the hardcore security, I did manage to weedle my way onto the Belmont campus. My adventures were cut short when one of the guards yelled at me, "Hey I don't know how you got in here, but you're not supposed to be in this area. How did you get in here?"

I don't have a cartoon for you guys today because I'm a little backlogged on uploading images, but as soon as I get myself to the library scanner, I'll bombard internetland.
