Ken Bone
January 20, 2017
“What steps will your energy policy take to meet our energy needs while at the same time remaining environmentally friendly and minimizing job loss for fossil power plant workers?” This was the question that then-uncommitted voter Ken Bone asked at the second presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton on Oct. 9. A YouTube video of Bone asking this question now has over 2 million views.
Obsessed with his red sweater and moustache – in what they deemed a ‘power outfit’ – in addition to his usage of a disposable camera following the debate, Internet users made a star out of Bone, constructing memes and praising him on social media platforms, including the hashtag “#BoneZone.”
