The Copy Candidate

From out of the blue another candidate for President of the United States is introduced to a gathering of reporters. They sit in stunned silence not believing their ears or eyes. The man is identical in appearance and charisma to a former popular but long deceased ex-president.He stopped in mid-stage and turned toward the stunned audience surveying them calmly deliberately taking their measure before speaking. He wore a small smile understanding the impact he made. After looking back and forth and waiting until every breath was silent he spoke. My name is Ronald Reagan. I am declaring my candidacy for President. After hearing his voice and watching his face his mannerisms those present had no doubts. It was him.
