RMD in 2016?

The new Ronald....
Well this really puts things in perspective. Ronald McDonald, a fictional character whose purpose is to promote the international hamburger chain McDonald's, has gotten himself a Twitter account. He is expected to use it to send "selfies" to show off his brand new makeover which features updated clothing. No more jumpsuit, instead a jacket and tie, albeit in the same red and yellow. Still, could this be a ploy to make himself more like his intended constituents? Obviously he's planning a run at the presidency in 2016.  And hey, why not---he's already a clown, and that's half the job requirement.


.... is more sophisticated than the original.
