President Is A Lot Smarter Than You Think

Plot

"With this second collection of Doonesbury cartoons it can be said that nihilism has been revived as a meaningful conceit. Body-surfing in on a wave of popular and critical acclaim, Zonker Harris makes his debut as superstar B.D.'s playful antagonist. The little golden haired freak and his touch and go relationship with reality are sensitively viewed in the context of his chronic encounters with Kool Aid and model airplane glue. But Zonker is not alone. He brings with him other new faces: Professor Charles Green, the street corner guru and dispenser of hip platitudes; Boopsy, the lemonade lady with the kind face and generous hips; Arnie, the genteel and erudite bricklayer from the Ozarks; and Nichole, the sister who went into a deep coma the first time she saw the Geritol ad ('My wife, I think I'll keep her!')" -- Back cover
