Zuckerberg Could Run Facebook While Serving in Government Forever (techcrunch.com)
Reader randomErr writes: Closer look at SEC documents reveal that Zuckerberg only needs to own enough Facebook stock or have the board's approval to be allowed to serve in the government. This comes hours after, Facebook co-founder said his 2017 personal challenge is to meet and listen to people in all 50 states, hinting that he may have intentions of getting into politics. Without the limit, Zuckerberg has the opportunity to be appointed or elected to a more significant office and have as much time as he wants to make an impact, rather than just dipping in potentially as a cabinet member whose terms typically last less than two years. Of course, getting elected would require the faith of the people which has been shaken by the fake news scandal. Some would surely view a role in government as a selfish push for power despite Zuckerberg's massive philanthropy initiatives. Certain government offices might have historically required him to give up control of Facebook, but Donald Trump is currently redefining how much ownership of business one can have as President
He will keep us safe from news
Resign.
Zuckerberg is already at the top of the fake news feed
It had been a while since slashdot reminded us to worship Zuckerberg. I can't say I was missing the call to prayer or anything, but I had noticed its absence.

It's not about Zuckerberg being appointed to or running for political office. The justification for this news story is the jab at the end about "fake news," lest we forget for a moment that we are all smart people and nobody we know voted for Donald Trump, therefore there must be foul play.
The Daddy casts sleep on the Baby. The Baby resists!
He's a college dropout who became a billionaire. I thought Red State America loved that? Or do you also have to be a racist?
You just tell them what they want to hear and they'll vote for you, whether you make any attempt at being sincere or not. When they are reminded of your past opposite positions, just deny that ever happened and make some half-assed attempt to play to their fears about something else. In short, lie. Seems to work pretty reliably these days. And you don't have to be a racist, but you absolutely shouldn't denounce racists either, because every white vote counts, even the evil ones.

Here's a quote from Mark Zuckerberg:
Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard
Zuck: Just ask
Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS
[Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?
Zuck: People just submitted it.
Zuck: I don't know why.
Zuck: They "trust me"
Zuck: Dumb fucks
