Remember that time you ate that spicy taco just before you went to bed on the night before the big carnival? Oh, that weird dream you had about the 2016 presidential election. When you woke up you couldn't quite remember the frightening details, but after reading "On Self-Reliance" and "A Sound of Thunder" it's all coming back to you now.
The dream started badly. You were in line with your family at a train station waiting to be sent to Africa. Everywhere you looked there were posters of president-elect Donald Clinton, looking like a crazy lion who could eat a whole crowd.
Suddenly, there was Ralph Waldo Emerson telling you, "A man is his own star" You realized that you have something to contribute to the world so you decided to change. But it wasn't easy. First you had to put on a fancy hat and shirt and then you had to make a car to go back in time to the library so you could convince people to learn about the candidates and their awful ideas.
But right there in the library there was a giant cat and it started attacking everyone. People started to cry. You grabbed a cane from a nearby senior and yelled "We are all individuals and unique!". Everyone stopped and listened, so you kept going.
