Get hyped, people. Former Texas governor Rick Perry is (according to press reports) officially becoming a candidate for the presidency today. Yee haw! Whoa cowboy! Other stereotypical Texas saying! He’s going to make the big announcement in Dallas (not at the Alamo, which is a gaffe) flanked by his wife and several Navy SEALs. So strap on your favorite jogging gun and grab yourself a corn dog – it’s time for Rick Perry 2016. This is, of course, Perry’s second run for the presidency in as many cycles, and this time around he’s looking for a little redemption. 

Perry has no support, no expectations, and a reputation to salvage in 2016. This should be amusing
