The moderator interjects: "That is a good question, Senator. We have another question closely related to yours from Greg Pollust of New York City: 'Mr. Boring, isn't it true that every Presidential election for the last 20 years has been tampered with and that once again in this primary your party is cheating your good friend, Senator Sanderson, in order to make you the nominee?' "
"Well, I would have to say that Mr. Pollust ought to watch what he says. However, it is not true. Elections in our country are totally honest. It's what do they say, yes, preposterous, to ever suggest such a thing."
Suddenly, a woman in the live audience calls out: "No it's not. Let me say a few words."
The moderator put up his hand, "Let her speak, Mr. Vice-President."
"It's true! The machines are being hacked by the henchmen of the billionaires. I was a poll monitor at the most recent primary. I checked the paper ballots in a number of the voting machines and they didn't match the digital numbers. It's a hoax, I tell you, a hoax, a fraud, a pox on Constitution and the people. We need to stand up for Sanderson, the true candidate of the people."
The woman charges the stage, appearing to be going after Boring, but security intercepts her.
"It's a hoax! It's a hoax! The billionaires are stealing our country and the people are too dumb to do anything about it!" she screams.
Suddenly, an explosion in the theater. Debris falls from the ceiling. When the smoke clears, injured people and dead bodies and blood are strewn around, some still in the seats which have not been blown apart. It's horrible. Boring and Sanderson have been spared, but democracy has not.
