Marion Berry and Kwame Kilpatrick ain’t got nothing on the latest politico to rock our world. He’s known as Budweiser’s Mayor of Whatever USA and folks across the country have been gossiping about the red-headed, pastel-blue-suit-and-sash wearing wanderer ever since the day he took office. We couldn’t wait to meet him and hopefully crack the code on this political enigma. Good thing he doesn’t disappoint. Bud Light's Mayor of Whatever USA is officially crazy which makes us love him even more.

Enstars: What have you done to prepare for being mayor?

Mayor of Whatever USA: Well, I took an online course and it was about four hours long and I aced it. A lot of questions, like little bubbles and checks. You know what, I don’t think it was a course. I think I just played a video game. Yeah, that was just a video game.

E: How has being mayor changed your life?

M: Wow, it’s changed it from top to bottom. Everyone instead of popping my tires and stuff, they give me rides.

E: What were you doing before you became mayor?

M: Wow, right before, it’s hard to remember because I feel like I’ve been mayor for an eternity now. I was an underwater welder.

E: Really? What kind of projects were you working on?

M: Wet ones. Just a ton of wet underwater projects.

E: What’s been the biggest surprise about becoming mayor?

M: Everybody’s so nice. I figured that political figures would get some sort of scrutiny but people just love it.

E: What kind of perks do you have as mayor?

M: There is no air space that I cannot violate. I’m allowed to wear anybody’s glasses whenever I want. I don’t have to brush my teeth at night anymore, so just one time a day. Those are big.

E: Will you run for president and if you do, what are your chances?

M: That’s a very good double question. I’ll answer the second one first: really good; a 100 percent, I think. If I ran for president I would definitely become president, at least in my own mind. And then to answer the first [question] second…what was that one? President, president, yes, would I run and the answer is yes, I will. And I will win and when I do…

E: Is there plans to bring a first lady into Whatever USA, into your mayoral castle?

M: That’s a good question too. There is a first lady and if she were to come she would have to wear the same suit and sash, so I don’t know if she’s up for it. She’s up for whatever usually, but I don’t know if she’s down for wearing a blue suit and a sash that says “Mayor’s Wife.” Plus, she’s actually the real mayor.

E: Now, we know you’re not the mayor of New York, but if there’s one thing you could improve upon with the city as it is, what would it be?

M: Air-conditioned subway cars, every single one. Not one ever going under. No more hot subway cars.

E: I agree with that!

M: And that’s an easy one because there aren’t that many anyways.

E: So as the mayor of Whatever USA I’m guessing that the town beverage is Bud Light?

M: Yes.

E: How do you like to consume Bud Light besides drinking it breakfast, lunch and dinner?

M: I like throwing it up in the air and like splashing it and trying to catch it with my mouth.

E: Do you have any pets Mr. Mayor?

M: I don’t have any pets, I have gardens.

E: Gardens? What do you grow in your gardens?

M: Oh man: squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, blackberries, are you kidding me? I’m the mayor.

E: I thought the mayor was going to say weed!

M: Wheat, hops…

E: No, not wheat—weed.

M: Oh.

E: Thank you Mister Mayor, it’s been such a pleasure.

M: Anytime. Nice to meet you.
