Archie would just have a beer, sit down and rant :lol:. While he wouldn't agree, the process would be short & simple. Honestly, what can YOU do, what can anybody do about it? The whole situation- nothing if you disagree with it.

Amen to that! I could just see George and Weezie having an all out blast...dancing, music, tons of food & booze... the whole nine yards!!! And of course the Meathead would be partying hearty..Edith too with her hola hoop!! :lol: ..but I could just hear Archie saying "Good Night Nurse...(you fill in the rest....use your imagination ;)) I'm sure George would have a few clever zingers too...esp. tailored to rile Archie!

The dialogs in this thread are hilarious! lol.

What came to me initially was a visual of Archie sitting there watching TV, with Wolf Blitzer announcing the Obama win, and the expression on Archie's face. A few minutes later, Lionel rings the doorbell. (He and Archie had a $20 bet on who would win.)

Edith: Oh, helloooo...Lionel!

Archie: Don't just stand there, get me a beer, haaaa?...Whadda you want, Lionel?

Mike: Pay up, Ahch! You owe Lionel 20 dolliz.

Gloria: Yeah, Daddy, you lost the bet!

Archie: All right, little goil...Here Lionel. Taxes are goin' up again anyway, my money ain't woit nuttin.

Lionel: Thanks Mr. Bunker.

Archie: Yeah, yeah (Looking at Mike) Whatta you lookin' at Meathead?

(Archie sits back down in his chair, dejected. The phone rings. Edith answers)

Oh, hello Mrs. Jefferson...yeahhhhh...isn't it great (Edith's in a cheery, giggly mood)

(Archie mimics her silently, mouthing the words "isn't it great?). (While Edith is holding the phone she says)

Edith: Ahchie, the Jeffersons is havin' a celebration party on Inauguration Day and we're invited!!!
Ain't that nice, Ahchie?

Archie: Byooteeful, Edit! (sarcastically)

(Archie has this bewildered look as he suddenly raises his eyebrows--the scene ends)

ARCHIE: Aw, geez, "they're" movin' into the White House now! That's what I was a afraid of...ever since that Cullingan Powell endorsed him...geez those people stick together, don't they?

MIKE: But Arch, don't you at least think it's a good thing that America finally has a black President after more than 200 years? I mean, you gotta admit...

ARCHIE (cuts him off): I AIN'T GOTTA ADMIT NOTHIN!!! Geez, before they was happy bein' Secretary of State... now one of 'em is the President aw geez it hurts just to say dat... it ain't enough for them to dominate the NBA...now they're ALL gonna wanna be President! There'll be nuttin left for us white guys to do except play golf..and we can't even win at THAT with this Tiger guy around... you got them William sisters in tennis... geez, I wish I could get my hands on the guy that invented affoimative action.

This thread is hilarious! With all due respect to Barack Obama, I think it would be hilarious if someone were to write a fan fiction with this very scenerio! In fact, I'm going to hop on over to the fan fiction board and see if someone's done it.

Andrea

I'll bet the Obama's would get a huge laugh out of it!!

This is a good thread - like the dialogue here - I can almost hear the screechy pitch of Edith's voice! ;)

You know, an episode like this has tremendous potential... just think how much fun Lionel Jefferson could have with Archie with Obama being in the White House...

Not to mention what George Jefferson would do!

I imagine such an episode could even incorporate a dream sequence with Archie meeting up with the Obama family... hmmmm...

OH Nuts!

Let's hope it's not for the same reason as Archie. ;)

Funny, this thread got me thinking about how sad it is that Carroll O'Connor isn't alive to see this. He would have loved it. Boy he was great at playing the opposite of everything he actually was. Who knows, maybe if he were still alive, Norman Lear could have brought them together again for a special or something. It's just too good to miss.

And of course, Joey would be all grown up now and I'm sure a liberal like Mike.
