What's the deal with Deez Nuts?

Deez Nuts may be the new US president.

YOU MAY HAVE heard the news that the States has a new presidential candidate called Deez Nuts, and he’s polling quite well.

But why Deez Nuts? Why not Dem Nuts?

Well, it’s all because it’s an established meme, think along the lines of the formidable F**k her right in the p***y.

It all started when Welven Harris took inspiration from Dre Dre’s song on The Chronic album in 1992, Deeez Nuuuuts. A skit at the start of the song in which a woman is prank called with DEEZ NUTS, resulted in the copycat punchlines.

It was the go-to for all obnoxious pranks

JZ: Do you want two CDs?
DG: What two CDs?
JZ: To SEE DEEZ NUTZ!

Juvenile, yes, but… well, there’s no buts.

So who’s the presidential candidate?

Filings from the FEC show that Deez Nuts lives in Iowa and is just 15 years old. He’s currently polling at 9 percent in North Carolina and eight percent in Minnesota.

No, it’s not a joke.

He gave an interview, confirming his name to be Brady Olson, to Rolling Stone magazine.

So why did he pick the name, Deez Nuts?

Is that some kind statement on our two-party political system?Half trying to break the two-party system, half frustration with the front-runners.

Some have speculated that message board 4chan is behind Deez Nuts’ popularity. However, he won’t be taking up residence in the White House any time soon. The US constitution says that no one under 35 can be commander in chief :(
