    Amos 'n Andy

    When I saw that sign, I immediately thought of the Kingfish.

    That show wasn't canceled because of racism, it was cancelled because it made fun of the Kingfish.

    Lawyers and con artists were offended.

    "Office of the President Elect" - clownish, pathetic and fraudulent.

    But you would buy it for a dollar!
