The campaign:
The comedy team of Tim and Eric announced for President and had a little confusion about who was where on the ticket. I transcribed two segments from Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, originally aired Mar. 24, 2009. The setting is a TV news conference where the tone and pace become more frantic with each passing second--
Tim: Good morning everybody, we have a very important announcement. Tim and Eric are running for President. I'm Tim Heidecker running for President and my running-mate will be Eric Wareheim.
[Breaking News - Tim Heidecker Running for President]
Eric: Thank you so much ladies and gentlemen. Let's flip it up. Eric Wareheim for President and Tim Heidecker in a smaller font and joker man font. Tim Heidecker as Vice-President.
[Breaking News - President: Eric Wareheim, Vice-President: Tim Heidecker]
Tim: Quick correction on that. Appreciate your statement ...
Eric: Thank you.
Tim: ... and I wanted to add to that it'll be Tim Heidecker, President and Eric Wareheimer as the Viss-President.
[Breaking News - Heidecker = President, Wareheimer = Viss President]
Eric: I's make an amendment on that. Tim Heidecker, President with a Vice, you know, with the Vice included and Eric Wareheim with no Vice as a full President.

Tim: Tim Heidecker running for President, best, uh, first place. Second place would be 'Rick Heinegeber.
[Breaking News - First Place: Tim Heidecker, Second Place: 'Rick Heinegeber]
Eric: I'm the number one dog. Eric Wareheim for President and my sidekick, my little man Tim Heidecker is VP, Vice-President, smaller.
------------------------------------------------------------
Eric: Tim's a tute man. That means prostitutes. All throughout his life. Even in high school. In his own parent's house. That's why he'll never be President. Eric Wareheim, full President.

Tim: Rock Wareheimer wears a straw hat, uh, at home in his house. He goes outside without the hat but when you see him in his house he does wear a small straw hat.
[Breaking News]
Eric: Tim Heidecker doesn't eat any cashews, or almonds, or any type of peanus.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Since both of them no doubt were residents of the same state, there would have been a Constitutional problem in the event they had won the election even if they did finally agree on who was going to be the President.
Election history: none
