"After nearly 15 minutes of soul-searching, I have heard the call." Finally, the candidate we've all been waiting for...Charleston's own Stephen Colbert announces he's running for president in South Carolina, and South Carolina only, on both the Democratic and Republican tickets. (Sadly, Aragorn can't vote in the Palmetto State.) In The Atlantic, Joshua Green handicaps his chances. "I can’t point to anything other than truthiness, but I believe the 'drunken college student' demographic is being overlooked. Anecdotal evidence lends support. 'I’m surprised how many students seem to get their news from Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert,' Blease admitted. 'In the grand tradition of student mischief, you could see Colbert having a pied-piper effect.'" Update: But is he breaking the law?
