Comedy Video Brainstorming

I had a kernal of an idea yesterday which went like this:

“I think we need a good comedian on Ron Paul's side to do a funny political satire skit of this race so far, favoring of course Ron Paul. We could have the comedian do impressions of the other candidates, maybe a one man show, and video this and put it on YouTube. I envision this video could be as short as 2 minutes long, or maybe up to 5 to 10 minutes or longer. This would not have to be an expensive elaborate production, we could even get a not-so-famous comedian to do this, as long as he (or she) is good and funny.

I think this would make for an extra novelty and fun video we could send to friends, acquaintances, or the public to give them a laugh, and at the same time show them how ridiculous these other candidates are."

1. What do you think of the idea?
2. What ideas can you think of for a funny short skit?
3. I have already been in contact with one comedian who specializes in a Bill Clinton impersonation (voice, mannerisms, looks, and attire). Can anybody think of any skit ideas that center around a Bill Clinton character doing the speaking?

I want to know what you people think of this idea, and any brainstorming you can come up around this idea from anyone who thinks this could be potentially worthwhile.

I think it's a good idea.

I think David Cross would be up for doing something. I don't think he does impressions though.

He's at the end of this video:

There is a comic that is a confirmed Ron Paul supporter, I can't remember his name though. Maybe someone who remembers can post it.

How about some ideas for a skit? We've got the Bill Clinton lookalive who might be interested. Any ideas that would star a Bill Clinton character? Or other skit ideas?
