Manuelo Fernanda, aka "the Destructor from Del Fuego, Mexico," is the charismatic president of the Federal Republic of Omigodtheykilledkenny. Formerly known for boxing, the middlewieght earned his fame on "South Park," when he got in the ring with Hong Kong singer Wing and beat the hell out of her [1]. A native of Paradise City or Del Fuego, depending on the biography, he was elected president on the God-fearing, Freedom-loving Conservative Patriot Party ticket in 2005. The first Latino and Roman Catholic, and at 31 the youngest man ever elected president, Fernanda has developed a reputation as something of an international playboy and womanizer while in office, mostly going for women world leaders and diplomats, and his administration has been notorious for a cavalier disregard for the sentiments of the international community (Fernanda holds the record for most rogue nations invaded in a single term), and a certain disdain for the United Nations.

Boxing Career

Fernanda, born and raised in a Spanish ghetto in Paradise City, has been boxing since he was 16, when kids used to tease him about his muscles. Having been expelled from six consecutive high schools for pulverizing his tormenters in the student body, his mother finally suggested that he channel his rage into a sport. Fernanda liked the idea, but his foray into figure skating didn't take. Despondant and unsure of what to do with his life after school, a friend told him, "You know, you have a pretty good right hook; why don't you go into boxing?" Fernanda immediately clobbered him for not also mentioning his magnificent uppercut punch.

Following the friend's funeral, Fernanda decided to honor him and follow his advice. After graduation, he joined an amateur boxing league and enrolled as a health-science major at Our Lady of Perpetual Belligerence College in nearby Basin City, where he was first suspended over a fraternity prank involving streaking a sorority fundraiser, an impromptu wet T-shirt contest and some scandalous Polaroids; then expelled for seducing his history teacher, who also happened to be a nun -- an offense for which Fernanda also faced excommunication, but he somehow got out of it by convincing The Vatican that the nun was a total skank.

Professional Boxer

Fernanda -- aside from having an annoying habit of showing up at his colleague's matches to taunt them and pelt them with candy and peanuts -- is undefeated as a professional (which incidentally is how he earned the nickname "the Destructor from Del Fuego"), having won two world titles and competed 27 times (scoring a total 19 KOs) in three different weight divisions -- defeating in the course of his career three former and then-world champions, (including Oscar de la Hoya), a mutant cyborg, a genetically engineered warrior penguin, an insolent horse and Rosie O'Donnell. Mike Tyson also tried to pick a fight with him one night at a club in Los Angeles, but, valuing his ears, he wisely chose to run away like a bitch.

In 2005, the Destructor competed on Sylvester Stallone's "The Contender," where he became an instant crowd favorite, but was tossed off the show after 11 shows when producers discovered that his credentials as a native of "Del Fuego, Mexico" were suspect at best -- and that such a town in Mexico probably didn't even exist. It was no matter, for Fernanda soon found another opponent's face to rearrange.

Fernanda vs. Thorne

Secret Service officers questioned the Destructor over a 2005 incident in which Fernanda, outraged over President John Thorne's denunciation of the adult-film industry in a weekly radio address, fired off an angry letter to him containing numerous threats and insults, a challenge to meet him outside the Capitol Building after dark, and the immortal words, "Hey bitch! Don't take away my porn!" Thorne responded with a form letter, an inpardonable transgression in the eyes of Fernanda, who up till then had always faced off with his opponents in person and one-on-one.

He began to pursue Thorne, showing up outside the Executive Offices in Paradise City, but when staffers there refused even to allow him into the building, Fernanda held vigils outside and began to show up at presidential events all over the country, winning widespread media attention for himself, and the eternal gratitude of porn stars everywhere. Jenna Jameson was on hand for one of Fernanda's vigils, and Michael Moore even showed up from time to time to film some of the campaign, later incorporating the footage into a political documentary entitled "Fernanda vs. Thorne: Capital Smackdown."

And so it happened that Fernanda was heckling the president at a speech in Stan Marsh Islands when Thorne finally decided to start yelling back at his stalker. The two got into a heated exchange, and Fernanda shouted at him: "Yo bitch! Why don't you bring your fucking bitch attitude to the ring?!" "The boorish malcontent has a point," responded Thorne thoughtfully. "Put your hat in the ring and I'll put in mine."

Fernanda was satisfied. "Damn fucking right!" he shot back.

2005 Election

The next day Thorne announced his candidacy for president, and news reports told of Fernanda's decision to challenge him -- prompting Fernanda to write the president, in his own uniquely tactful manner: "I meant the boxing ring, retard!" With much of the public clamoring for him to run, he had no choice but to announce his own candidacy as a Conservative.

Though Fernanda's status as a celebrity won him instant name recognition, powerful corporate sponsors and support, endorsements and cash from the entertainment community, the race remained extremely tight, with most polls showing a dead heat throughout. Foreign affairs was a main issue, with Thorne promising to "continue to apply internationally recognized standards of law established in UN resolutions and international agreements and treaties to carry our message to the world," and Fernanda demanding, "Who the fuck cares what the UN thinks?! We're resigning from that piss-fest on Day One!" (a promise that yes yet to be fulfilled, by the way). In their first televised debate, Fernanda continually taunted Thorne with verbal insults and foul comments about his mother, and pelted him with spitballs as he spoke. His highly amusing antics actually brought him up in the polls slightly.
