Attack ads from the bitter Palpatine-Calrissian presidential race. Today, I’m going to vote for real leadership for the future with Emperor Palpatine. How about you? HT: Gabriel Malor

    If anyone's ever been to Washington DC and got deja vu in the middle of the video--yes, that is a DC Metro stop behind Lando.

    Am I the only one who realized this would be about 10 times more awesome if they had their continuity between new and old trilogies right?

    I was going to write in "Ron Paul" for president - This compelling political advert has swayed my decision ;)

    Poor Billy-Dee.
