Dear Mr. Bartolin,
The ascendancy of George W. Bush has rendered The Broadmoor sacrosanct ground for American conservatives. On your premises in 1986, a professional scion forswore alcohol and resolved to lead life on the straight and narrow with help from God and patrimony.* **
I'm wondering if you might consider marketing this juicy nugget of The Broadmoor's history? While re-enactments would be a bit over the top, a tasteful shrine would attract those interested in solemnly commemorating the occasion when an unlikely commander in chief was born.
On the nonpartisan front, a Bush's Last Stand Happy Hour would certainly be profitable. Although I've never marketed anything before, I'd certainly be willing to consult. Any moron can consult, right?
Please let me know if you're interested.
Sincerely,
Kenneth Cleaver
