I don’t understand why “JoKa” has not been promulgated among the media and Hollywood crowd for the recently selected Democratic ticket. It’s been almost a week, and Twitter hasn’t picked up on this new word.

It makes for a great play on words in English. It was a hit movie just recently even, in the New England states anyway, based on the pronunciation. Even has the same uplifting themes — promoting goodness and harmony, transcending cultural, racial and gender barriers. (As if we even had those barriers in the U.S.)

Let’s hear it everybody — JoKa! JoKa! JoKa! What could go wrong?

Bonus — kinda rhymes with kumbaya.
