"What impresses me about Rand Paul is that he has a guy taking selfies for him...It is revolutionary. It is genius...Why doesn't Hillary have a Selfie Guy?"
—Politico columnist Roger Simon on the latest development in presidential politics

If someone else takes the photo for you, that's commonly known as a photographer or camera operator. It is no longer a selfie.

I wonder how soon other candidates will hire such a person.

The angles wouldn't be right anyway - the whole point of a selfie is that it's supposed to look properly amateur.

I skimmed that article. It's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever read.

I have not yet read the article.

I am desperately hoping this is an example of very dry humor.
