stephen colbert is seriously one of the smartest dudes on this planet. honest to God he should be running the country.
although i guess that would put him in sort of a Man of the Year situation. seriously though- he is a fantastic debater, he's strong in his faith as a Christian (imagine Stephen Colbert as your sunday school teacher...i know right?), he's ridiculously intelligent and just plain ridiculous. not to mention he's got a magnetic television persona and is more charming than most politicians (and more honest than all of them. who invented the word "truthiness"? OH YEAH, STEPHEN.)
it's in America's hands now.
