Information about Roemer from the previous IAMA courtesy of user Pilebsa:

He switched parties after he was elected governor of Louisiana. The people voted for a democrat, then he became a republican. Buddy Roemer campaigned on making education a priority, then he spent most of his time bringing in video poker to the state instead. Louisiana had the only gambling deal in the nation at the time with no specific money earmarked to stuff like education. Roemer was so bad he ended up losing to one of the most corrupt politicians in modern history, Edwin Edwards (who just recently got out of prison) and David Duke, ex-KKK neo-nazi white supremecist. Yes that's right, Buddy Roemer couldn't even get in a runoff against a KKK imperial grand wizard as an incumbant seeking re-election!

In all likelihood, his anti-PAC, tiny-contributor stance is merely circumstantial. He has sold out so many times he has no real allies on either side and nobody wants to give him money, so he's repackaged that as some kind of idealistic stance.

Here in Louisiana, whenever I see some old lady pouring her money into those annoying video poker machines, I think of Roemer. That's his legacy. And we still have one of the shittiest educational systems in the nation. I worked on his campaign because I respected his desire to want to make education a priority. That turned out to be a sham.

Your job represents the two things in life I really want to do for a career. I had no idea video game attorneys existed a few seconds ago.

  1. How the hell do you get a job as a video game attorney (besides law school, obviously)?

  2. What do you think of Phoenix Wright? Is that what your job is like at all?

Just wanted to say I love you guys. Rub Some Bacon On It is still the catchiest song I've ever heard.

My questions: do you guys still make local commercials for small businesses? How did you decide to start doing that anyway? Is there any chance you two will do another road trip across the country again?
