Lovenstein’s Running Mate

“We interrupt Monday Night Space-Ape Fights for this breaking news,” B’jnktl the news-alien announced, “Galactic presidential contender Vithor Lovenstein has announced Encyclopedia Galactica Version 23.107 as his running mate. We turn now to political analyst ConventionalThinkingBot5000. It’s surprising that Lovenstein chose a non-sentient software program as a vice presidential nominee.”

“Not really. Polls showed potential voters saw Lovenstein as less intelligent than his opponents, so the choice of Encyclopedia Galactica Version 23.107 was really a no-brainer.”

“Lovenstein’s opponents have criticized the pick, though.”

“Certainly. President Google-Bronx said Encyclopedia Galactica Version 23.107 may be intelligent, but cannot sympathize with the average voter.”
