I don't think this is very funny, it is rather sad IMHO!
And everybody wants to be loved -- not everybody, but -- you run for office, I guess you do. You never heard anybody say, 'I want to be despised, I'm running for office.'

UU talk:
"I believe a military of high morale is conducive to keeping the peace... not the worst but... when we find a senior who has to choose between food and medicine-that's not our vision of America."
I asked my friend's little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?'
She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'
'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'You don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow, edge, pull weeds, and sweep my garage, and I'll pay you $50.-Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.'
She thought that over for a few seconds while her Mom glared at me, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, 'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?'
Just another one before the good man leaves the White House (don't think McCain is quite as eloquent in his speeches). Here is UU speaking to Caterpillar company employees in East Peoria, IL on 01/30/2007:
"Trade is an important subject here at Caterpillar, and the reason why is because a lot of the product you make here, you sell to somebody else, sell overseas to another country. That's trade. And yet it's--it's a topic of hot debate."
