== Plot ==
First Part: Primary
Vernon Ingledew decided to run for governor. He has no political experience whatsoever, but he was the great-great-great-grandson of Jacob Ingledew, who had been the governor of Arkansas during Reconstruction. Day, Vernon’s best friend, and Diana, Day’s wife, discuss with Don and Kim how they expected Vernon to run for governor and why he might have decided to run. Vernon is a genius and he had a self-enriching program he used to learn things. He would spend one year learning everything there is to know about two subjects starting at the beginning of the alphabet. He learned everything there is to know about art history and astronomy when he started this “program.” Vernon got to “P” and alphabetically after philosophy came politics so he decided the best way to learn politics was to become a politician.
