Ken Bone: The real star of the presidential debate

Ken Bone. Amazing name, amazing chunky jumper and absolute star of the latest presidential debate.

Never mind the sparks flying between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

Social media was far more concerned with the friendly-looking man in the audience, who many said bore a striking resemblance to Peter Griffin from Family Guy.

By the end of the debate, people were saying they wanted Ken Bone for president.

Ken, or Kenny, or K Bone didn't set the world alight with his question to the two candidates.

"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?"

But it was his outfit and the fact he used a regular disposable camera to take photos that made him a hero.

This a tweet linked to video footage of Ken Bone taking photos during the presidential debate.

This has been one of the most bitter presidential campaigns ever.

So people are clearly desperate for someone to lighten the mood. That man is Ken.
