I purpose that we all walk at a brisk pace for president. I tried couch to 5k twice, and I’m not a fan of all that running nonsense.

If running for #'aras25 a profile photo would be something like *gazing mistily away off into the distance where a bright new dawn is erm dawning* -or- how about assured and confident with back straight and arms crossed , trying very hard to look confident but not arrogant*

Severe lack of dogs in the pic. An understated part of Michael D's legacy is that any candidate with serious aspirations must have at least two big huge lovable dogs.

We could do it literally and have it is a prize for the winner of the Dublin City marathon? Timing lines up. Or introduce a surprise twist to the end of The Traitors. Or have a new reality show called Operation Transform Nation. Loads of options really.
