Celebrity kippa-wearer #1

Date: October 2004.

Location: B'nai Torah Congregation, Boca Raton.

Occasion: Stumping for candidate Kerry.

Analysis: I mean, come on -- look at him! First, he's wearing a kippa s'ruga, as opposed to those silly polyester camping tents we tend to give those of our guests who we'd like to stand out. Second, he's got The Flag behind him. Third, he's quite clearly standing in front of an aron. Finally, he's holding his glasses just so. He looks like the kindly neighborhood professor who gives occasional Shabbat talks on the history of the Marranos or how Iggeret ha-Sh'mad has been interpreted over the ages or some such thing.

Score: 10/10. I'd welcome Dr. Clintonovich to my shul anytime.
