* President Dwayne Alizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho seems unusually likeable (since he understands that there are people smarter than him, and saves Joe from the mob) when one considers that ''everyone'' else in the future is both a moron and a JerkAss. But his character was inspired by the voters who weren’t doctrinaire Republicans who voted for Bush because, unlike Gore or Kerry, he was “a guy you’d wanna have a beer with.” With that in mind, ''of course'' Camacho would be likeable and personable. This also entails that he be at least a little smarter than everyone else, because [[IRejectYourReality true, willful ignorance]] is an inherently unsympathetic trait, especially for those who don’t get better.
