Bashing the Chevy Volt (Stealth Phenology Update 3/1/12)

As noted last week, the all-electric Volt isn't General Motors' best-selling car. People who don't like the present administration, the idea of subsidies for private industry, or GM in general, are really making fun of the Volt. Somebody even proposed nominating the poor thing for Vice-President....

Hmm. Does the Constitution actually say that the Vice-President has to be human, or does it merely specify age and place of birth? Could our next Vice-President be a Chevy Bel Air? Is that the kind of life insurance Obama, Romney, or Gingrich would need, or would the plan backfire as angry voters decided the car couldn't possibly do so much harm? Is this a day that nature intended us to spend at the lake, and have I been online too long?
