Technically speaking, one cannot be “accidentally” elected President of the United States.

Here are Ten Things You Need to Remember:

1.  Upon hearing that a certain Rich Nuisance was actually serious about running for the highest office in the land, Hamilton said, “If any jackass can run for President, I’m throwing my hat into the ring.  Rogers, you’re my running mate.”

2.  Steve “eeped” but to be honest, his judgment was slightly impaired by Thor’s Asgardian mead.  Also, it’s really hard to say no to an actual Founding Father.

3.  It totally didn’t help that Bucky egged him on about it.  “I’d always wanted to be the Second Lady.  Or Gentleman.”

“Do not throw away your shot, Rogers,” Hamilton smirked. 

Some epic facepalming ensued. 

4.  It also didn’t help that Tony Stark – who is decidedly Hamilton’s Favorite Non-Nuisance Rich Person – kicked off the HamiltonRogers2k16 campaign by making the generous donation of USD$5,000.  He was perfectly happy to give more.

5.  There may have been a Ghostly Peanut Gallery composed of Dead Founding Fathers, Family Members, Dwarves, Two Hobbits and Peggy (NOT Schulyer) cheering the two idiots on.

6.  Except for Thomas Jefferson, who pouted in a corner, chanting, “Never gon’ be President, my gawd, what is this country coming to?”

7.   Attys. Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson actually filed the necessary documents. 

8.  Officially, they were running under the revived Federalist Party.  Okay, they weren’t really running for President – Hamilton was just trying to prove a point.  But he was amazingly eloquent about their proposed platform and Steve, of course, could be depended upon to back him up.  

Also, the putdowns of certain candidates were incredibly entertaining.

9.  And then, Hamilton and Rogers basically summed up their talking points in an amazing rap that was helpfully contributed by A Dot Ham’s favorite adopted Puerto Rican son. 

“Why the hell did you give me the fastest bits of the rap? Do I look like Lafayette to you?”

“Try to tell me you’re not able to rap like you’re running out of time,” was the cool response.

Steve was too busy snickering in the background.

10.  Alexander Hamilton and Steve Rogers won by a landslide.  Ooops?
