I enjoy being a nerd

So I was glad to see this press release…

PI, the popular mathematical symbol, today announced that it is a candidate for President. Pi’s campaign theme “Endless Change”, is based on its infinite and endless series of digits. “We expect an uphill battle. e and PHI have also announced”. Detractors point out that PI’s campaign theme, “endless change”, based on its endless digits which never repeat and have no discernable [sic] pattern, actually make PI “history’s biggest flip-flopper”.

I can understand e getting into the race. He’s a small but important player in the mathematico-political world with some serious ties to the engineering lobby. But Phi? Come on. You know that his campaign is going to be carried by his aesthetics and nothing else.
