Irish presidential election


There is only one person that should be made president of Ireland and thats Senator Norris.  He is the only person for the Job. Apart from his fine rhetoric skills ,genial disposition and flamboyant flair the senator is the only person I know who has actually read the James Joyce Novel Ulysses and by all accounts actually understands it.
This Urban Novel is not an easy read but the Senator has become a world authority on it,many seek his counsel and then pretend they have read it . The significance of all this lies in a quote by James Joyce to Frank Budgen in 1918,Budgen being the author of "James Joyce and the making of Ulysses",what he said was "I want to give a picture of Dublin so complete that if the city suddenly disappeared from the earth it could be reconstructed out of my book"
Now For Dublin to disappear is not such an outlandish possibility when you consider all the natural disasters happening all over the world .
No we shouldnt be suprised to wake up some morning to find Dublin gone and a Field in its place.
Who are we going to call on to rebuild our city? ,we cant really rely on  the Builders or property developers in the light of how we all finished up after them.
No this time we are going to do things different ,we need the services of President Norris to rebuild our city . Now admittely things have changed since Ulysses was written ,like they wasnt any of those fast food joints around  and no Coppers face Jacks  then,but we can live without those anyway ya we would actually live longer without them literally. Dublin could be rebuilt to all it Georgian splendor with the help of our president
NO JOB TOO BIG NO JOB TOO SMALL
