Dracula/VanHelsing Announce Bid for Presidency
By SVEN BLUDBACK
Associated Press Writer
TRANSYLVANIA (AP) -- My maste... a respected Transylvanian today tossed his hat into the ring for President of the United States. Though his official birthplace and age is undocumented, he has started popping up on ballots nation-wide and so is elligible to run.
The platform my master is running on is that of a tax-subsidized national bloodbank system, clearing of forests for housing developments, and construction of a massive sun shield to protect our children from the threat of skin cancer. He also supports increasing of funding in programs to rid the world of garlic poisoning.
A remarkable example of bipartisanship, his lordship's running-mate is an eccentric outdoorsman that rivals all of the Presidential-hopeful's positions. "We must destroy Dracula!" Van Helsing proclaimed in jest in a late-running TV spot. An energetic and charismatic figure, he was seen at a campaign stop chasing Dracula with a sharpened wooden stake. The Dracula/VanHelsing ticket is expected to bring more people to the polls than ever before, and will maek this an exciting race indeed.
