A group of young guys from a small town next to Belgrade, made a parody video about a fictional politician who has all the classic bad characteristics such as being a pesant, ultimately corrupted, yet idolized as a savior among people.

After the video that was published a year ago, they decided to move their meme on the next level, they collected enough signatures, and run'd their imaginary politician on the local elections in their small town.
Shockingly for the most of the parties in Serbia, they won around 23 percent of local votes, yet no one took them serious.
Now one year later, they pushed the meme on the whole new level, they're running him for the Presidental elections, they started with no cash and no logistic at all, and while they were collecting the neccesary 10k signatures so they can run for President, they were under a lot of pressures, such as courts not wanting to note those signature and announce them valid, special police forces doing raids among the bars that the signatures were collecting because of "Anti-drug actions", and the Election Committee was close to decline their list after they submited the neccesary 10k signs, because they were missing 2 words among them.
Their promoting video once that announced Beli as the Candidate
"Whitey is waking up"

Yet by the first polls he's the 2nd favorite, keeping all the parties that are being financed by millions behind him, while the first is the actual Prime Minister Vucic, who has complete monopoly over power, medias, government and all other sphere's of society.
They basically did the whole campaign and candidature based on small donations from the people that were transparent , and they refused to take almost 200k euros, the money that they were in tittle to for the camping from the Government budget.
His fictional name is Ljubisa(usually a pesant name) Preletacevic(which is a game of words that means a guy who's switching parties non stop), and his nickname is Beli (Whitey)
Their "party" name is "You havent tried(our) Sarma"
In his "political program" he says that he will steal everything he can, but he will give out a part of it to the people, unlike others last 30 years in Serbia, who only took cash for themselves. He's promising to move the Wall Street to a small village in Serbia, that he's gonna build a Dubai for every Roma in Serbia, that he will open a factory of space shuttles, and be the first one to colonized Mars and stuff like that. :lol:
The leading party is nervious, because they cant really hit these guys like their regular political opponents.. Some of their newspapers accused them to be "on the foregn budgets" hence when Rockefeller died, they made a video in which he's crying how his main financer died, and how he didn't had time to go to the ceremony and try steal some extra cash from him for the last time. :lol:

He's basically a huge mock of all our politicans last 30 years, hence he's getting outstanding support from the people who are tired of the same old corrupted faces who destroyed our country, he woke up a large group of people who didn't wanna vote all these years because "they're all the same", and now everyone sees is as a chance to take a huge piss on all of them, hence why one of his slogans is "The Poor(nation), strike back!), as well as 'Hit it hard!".
Their whole campaign is internet based only.
Their final video and song, before the election silence, 80s style ftw :lol::
"Whitey the winner!" you got a english CC in the video, just click it.
