For those that haven't been following the weird Youtube memes lately, Vermin Supreme is a presidential candidate who promises a free pony for every single person in the united states. Clearly this makes him a superior choice over every other candidate.
His most recent campaign ad is pretty much dedicated to us from the looks of it.
Check it out after the break! And do bring your sense of humor.

called it. second I saw this video I knew it'd be up here soon.
#WINNING!!!!!
Yes, you are a meme now, lol
...Wat?
Oh god, not again
Yes that's a good thing
Hey everyone look at my post.
Queen of bronies. Enough said. He got my vote.
A meme for president. As much as I wanted a Pokemon master for president, this will do just fine.
this guy has totally stumbled into a world that even he wasn't prepared to enter. He is now on the brony radar as someone we can lavish praise and support upon.
Pinkie Supreme is best pony
Ahem... no.
This guy is so awesome...
Um. Wow. I just lost about 80% of the respect I had for this guy.
wow this is just insane...like crank it up to 11 insane
Queen of Bronies?
I'm okay with this.
Buy his merch!
This video was interesting.
I'm adding spaces to my comment to make it bigger.
You should read my informative comment.
This Man is a god! he is so totally queen of broniws! He's our boot wearing princess Vermin Supereme!... That gives me an Idea! Rushes off to go draw vermin OC
That man is a genius!
He is quite the interesting fellow.
He just jumped the shark.
I love it.
WHOO! WHOOO!
Great speech ending, dude.
this is the video on HIS channel, it should be getting teh views :/

I'd give him my vote. The man is clearly a genius.
Word is, he's a meme.
VOTE VERMIN.
@Wallacoloo
Lol, you had respect for him to begin with? I'm pretty sure he doesn't care one way or the either. He's obviously trolling, epically trolling at that. Or he really is psychotic.
@Aeleos
He actually sent the one linked above, so I rolled with that one.
thanks for the link, Aelos!
Wtf is wrong with embed......
This guy is the best! All my votes! ALL OF THEM!
VERMIN! you gets all da Internets!
Haha. Vermin Supreme is quite clearly the brony communities prime choice for presidential candidate. He's probably the best candidate we've had in a long time.
Yeah, dunno if I would go so far as to call him our queen. Especially when that slot is filled.
He's more than welcome to be our vicereine, or viceroy.
Unfortunately I think he just sped up his memetic death tenfold with that video. You can't metagame memes. It's sad because I thought he had a lot of potential.
Alright everypony listen up! In November, I wanna see Ron Paul vs. Vermin Supreme, forget all the fake candidates. It's gotta be a showdown between these two. The whole world will shudder with fear as we hesitate to choose order over CHAOS! And no matter who wins, I dare say it will be beautiful.
Idk, this guy looks pretty serious, he got over 800 votes in the Democratic Primary.
All-in-all, he aims to satirize the political process. While he's doing an amiable job of that, I would think his time would be better spent providing a few links to important political notes (blogs on SOPA/PIPA/ACTA or what-have-you). While it's all well and good to make a lot of noise and get enough funding from fans to support his activities, it would be nice to know that he stands for getting better informed about the political process rather than just representing misguided anarchy.
@naahdude
Naah, what are you doing?
I'm pretty sure he's just in it for the laughs (and selling merch!), not making any particular political statement.
From watching this video, I think it's safe to assume that this man is a meme.
Is this a form of trolling? This guy is bloody brilliant, this man needs to be president.
@tpk
I don't know... I want to see Vermin Supreme against Stephen Colbert come November. Both are clearly fine upstanding citizens, and well tuned to our interests. We can't lose either way!
0-0 Wow. This was... unusually entertaining. =)
this is gonna embarrass us brony so much...
From what I have seen of Vermin Supreme, he is a man who is clearly intelligent and imaginative. Some may fault him for wasting this increasingly rare combination of talents on creating a false persona to use for a phony bid for the presidency.
Not I. Especially with our current news cycle of always on, always trying to find the hottest story, where the campaigning for a place of political power begins as soon as the last campaign is over with (and maybe even before that!), where anybody with a platform, a premise, and a passion is willing to scream that they know best, and that to listen to anybody else is wrong:
This man is a welcome breath of fresh air. Of humor and honesty. When was the last time that a candidate straight up told you that a vote for them was well and truly wasted? Mind you, I'm not saying that we should all go out and vote for him; I'd like to think that he would be a bit saddened by us doing so. Because we would be missing the point that he is trying to make. That it's okay to laugh at even the truly serious things, like trying to figure out who is going to be the leader of our country (as much as any one person can when congress does it's best to not do anything, and the Supreme Court is busy turning corporations into people).
Vermin Supreme, if you should happen to read this thread of comments, let me say thank you. Not only for all of the hard work that you put into your efforts, but for also being willing to include us in on the fun. I'll be more than happy to help steer the motorboat that pulls you along as you jump the sharks that the election cycle brings our way.
if he gets the power to do something it will be interesting times ahead of us.
I'm guessing he is a meme, but he doesn't want to be, so he's trying to end it as soon as possible.
Vermin supreme is quite an impressive candidate who should runs our life and knows what is best for all of us. He further proves this point by promising us a free pony before shifting us into his new pony based economy. He is the fascist tyrannical ruler that should be our queen! And remember, a vote for Vermin Supreme is a vote that was
well and wasted.
My sense of humor is fairly broken today, I didn't find it funny, I preferred is other video.
Besides, aren't queens supposed to be evil for us?
i live in canada
The Brony Queen? Doesn't he mean Princess XD?
I dont even
MY BRAAAAAAAAIN
I CAN NEVER THINK AGAIN
Vermin Supreme is just incredible, bow to our brony queen.
I brain has barely recovered from yesterday and now this!?
Meh. Trying to hard.
pony based economy... That would solve all of earths problems.
Hehehe. Ponies. :)
REAL PONIES - Y U NO LOOK LIKE MLP PONIES
Because mlp would be animal planet with horse voice acting.
Nothing out of the ordinary here: just another of the usual politicians.
XD
My sense of humor has already endorsed Stephen Colbert.
@Mike
Really though; can't tell if Social commentary, satire, or serious.
As with Infinion, I too live in Canada. Thank goodness! I watch this stuff and my spirit screams, "bad touch! BAD TOUCH!". Like, alot. Stephen Colbert, now THERE'S a president!
I wish I was American, just so I could vote for this guy.
The bronies' queen...? I don't think Queen Faust would agree.
@Sethisto
Wait just a moment, HE sent it to you?
Vermin Supreme for president!
What. The. Fuck!
With the sheer power the Brony Fandom has, we should be able to put this guy in office.
Whether he's serious, or completely insane, he's proving that the difference between politicians is non existent. He's basically saying the same things anyone else says when running for office. He's just being honest about it.
The spamming of 'Buy my merch' makes me think he's just trying to use us to make cash. And doesnt actually give two shits about the show or the bronies...
Well, we kind of HAVE to vote for him now! :D
He had me at ponies.
Then he REALLY had me at creating winged monkeys to act as tooth fairies.
Get this man into office NOW.
IMO He's either:
*Out to make a mockery of the presidential campaign (2 thumbs up if so :P).
*Actually insane in the membrain.
*One of the best trolls ever.
I say we get the entire brony community to vote for him on the condition that he funds research for portal guns. WE COULD GO DOWN IN HISTORY.
Nope.
No one can replace the Great and Mighty Faust. And Jayson Christ is the Brony King.
I'd buy his merch!
I'm worried people will actually vote for this guy. I think he's hilarious and raises a number of profound points, but he said it himself... "a vote for Vermin Supreme is a vote thrown away."
@PhantomBadger
I'm sure he was just as serious about that as he was about everything else. *insert eye-roll here*
I might actually buy a shirt from him, now that I think about it.
@PhantomBadger
He's not trying to use us to make cash (I mean, well, I'm sure he wouldn't object to it). If that single point isn't the most obvious satire he's making of this situation I don't know what is. The purpose of a satarist is to highlight all that is ridiculous in the world and bring it up for judgment. Whether or not he is consciously making that decision with every action, there's one thing I think very plainly this video should tell us.
We shouldn't keep endorsing every single thing just because they mention ponies. We're better than that as a fandom. As people. We should have the capacity to encourage more individual intellectual growth and decision making.
Now, I don't dislike Vermin Supreme, but if bronies are going to get political (whether in a satirical or more real way) we shouldn't forget that the core beliefs which we were founded on and keeps us centered as a community are "love and tolerate." M. Supreme is not devoid of such messages in that favor, but we need a candidate who makes this their platform.
We need a visionary to illuminate the way for all pony and/or human kind. We need a leader with more than 1000 years of political experience. We need Celestia for President.
(PS: At the time of completing this statement I have entirely forgotten who I was replying to, sorry)
(PPS Also, Hasbro corporate headquarters are based in Rhode Island, so Celestia can totally qualify as a native-born American)
You are not my president. You are not even my queen. But you are a freaking awesome person.
this guy sounds oddly like human Discord. FREE CHOCOLATE MILK AND COTTON CANDY FOR EVERYONE! XD
Celestia for President, Vermin Supreme as running mate. U SAD LUNA?
HAhahaha! Oh this guy is awesome.
Well I figured I'd put 'no' for my vote for president. I've changed my mind.
This man is clearly insane in the BEST way possible.
Again... Hate politics, but i WILL vote just this once... for him. Because... Come on... who doesn't want winged monkeys as tooth fairies?
I didn't know Pinkie Pie was an old, hairy human who was running for the American Presidency. I might have to vote for her in her new, reincarnated form.
@Cesar
As long as it ain't that TruMoo stuff... I'm okay with this
Today, Queen of the Bronies. Tomorrow, President of the United States. The day after that, Ultimate High Pharoh of the Omniverse.
This is insanely weird but funny lol. BUY HIS MERCH!!!
Best, troll, EVER.
Clearly this man is a genius and knows what's up. Vermin Supreme for President!
When a guy has a boot on his head, you KNOW he's going to be a great president.
Somepony, draw this guy as a PONY!
That was him singing? If it was he has an amazing voice! I like when he sang, "I am a mmmeeeemmm like the pan I flash!"
Pony economy and dental laws? He's got my vote.
I for one welcome out new Vermin overlord.
Hmm... I wonder... What would happen if we elected him president? O_o
@EvilRaz But... a pony for everyone was MY campaign promise!
*eye-narrows as shadows grow around him and ominous music pays* We shall now allow competition! Hired goons! Do your worst!
@Jorj Real ponies inherited lots of mutated genes, I fear. Millions of years ago, they used to look exactly like MLP!! TRUST MY WORDS FOR I AM A SCIENTIST!!! OBEY!!!
This guy is hilariously an epic troll but but Ron Paul gets my vote
Oh screw Ron Paul, this guy gets my vote. JK
But seriously, I feel it is people like this that makes the fandom look bad.
If he were by some miracle elected President, the United Nations would declare the America a rogue nation, and they would all band together to take us over for the good of the world. And the US would revert to its original state, as an English colony.
I am proud to have Vermin Supreme as the Bronies' queen.
@Ivan The Adorable
I agree in your endorsement of Celestia. I, for one, welcome our new pony overlords. Once she gets that portal between our worlds open, of course.
Celestia/Luna 2012 - All other choices will be banished to the moon.
Can you jump the shark when you are announcing that you are jumping the shark?
The faux seriousness of the debate was hilarious. This is just trying too hard. I smiled, but I didn't laugh.
@Cesar
He is definitely a human Discord. Which means that if elected he will usher in an "eternal state of unrest and unhappiness", of course as a result the human equivalents of Celestia and Luna should appear to defeat him and usher in a new age of harmony. So it still might be a win, depending on just how long that "eternal" part lasts.
