Michele Bachmann Wishes Elvis A Happy Birthday On Anniversary Of His Death
Republican U.S. presidential candidate Michele Bachmann offered a "happy birthday" message to the late singer Elvis Presley on Monday, even though August 16 is the anniversary of his death in 1977. "Happy Birthday, Elvis!" Bachmann shouted from the stage at a campaign stop in the parking lot of "The Beacon," a South Carolina drive-in restaurant famous for its fried food and sweet tea.
"Before we get started, let's all say, 'Happy Birthday' to Elivs Presley today," Bachmann said. "We played you a little bit of 'Promise Land' when we pulled up. You can't do better than Elvis Presley, and we thought we would celebrate his birthday as we get started celebrating taking our country back to work."
After her stump speech, the U.S. congresswoman from Minnesota told a group of reporters that she was happy to be in South Carolina "on the anniversary of Elvis Presley's death." "He's still alive. He's alive in our hearts," Bachmann said.
Later, a campaign organizer who did not want to be identified said with a wink: "You celebrate Elvis because he never died."
