really thinking about this quote on dan quayle by an eighth grader: “He’s not, like, smart. I’m not trying to bag on him or anything, but he has the same mentality I have--and I’m in the eighth grade.”

In the Enigma future history sci-fi writing project Dan Quayle becomes president as a Libertarian, befriends the Pope (who moved to El Salvador), is elected to president of the Americas, and then in 2043
"Dan Quayle continues to be elected ACC president by large majorities for fifteen years until his assassination in 2043. Japanese ninja are blamed for his death. Thousands of Asian-Americans are killed by lynch mobs. Quayle becomes a martyr to most American religions and is canonized by the Catholic Church in 2046."
"Two days after Quayle's death, Vice-President Marilyn Quayle commits suicide out of grief for her husband's demise. With popular support, Pope Mary II forms an interim government until elections can be held. The ACC Congress amends the constitution, making Quayle the ACC President-in-absentia for all eternity and giving executive control to a five-man council of political/religious leaders."
"The council is dominated by David Brin, a founder of the Gaean church and political maverick, and Ralph Bakshi, a high priest of the conservative Limboists. Anti-Asian sentiment grows."
