Jack Benny is funny... this is not funny.
Thank you for acknowledging my delightful sense of humor which is more often than not quite dry and will give new meaning to the dead pan pioneered by Buster Keaton 100 years ago.
I really do not want to have anything to do with this...

I second @Floridafacelifter
If nothing else a man who spends his days drastically improving Busts can't be that bad a choice!

HRM @BillJonesThank you, I am just a ham and egger compared to some people here.
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

This king is not official, therefore he is electable.
It was a joke.
That being the case, I am asking for volunteers for the Forum Liberation Front who will seek to overthrow the King as soon as she is seated.

I have learned more from @burfle23 than anyone else here. @BillJones always posts things that entice and educate me, too.
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
