Etymons: candid, adj; candidacy, n
1) The eponymous character of "Candide ou l'optimisme" by Voltaire, an optimistic man who repeatedly claims that we "live in the best of all possible worlds" and that "we must cultivate our garden". The book is philosophical, but ultimately a satire (so there's also a lady who lost one of her two buttcheeks because she ate it in it) and was banned because it was too controversial.
2) Born this very minute 23 years ago, Austro-German singer-songwriter, stylist, fashion icon and social media influencer Candide is known for her profound exploration of both the human psyche and eros through art and research. Popular because of her kindness and willingness to reach out and deep into other people, she has been known to hear people's life stories a mere five minutes after meeting them and uses these insights to fuel her art and understanding of the world. An amazing friend and wonderful person, according to those who know her, she continues onwards on her path towards beauty in a complex world.

Get the candid shotmug. The fictional character a politician creates in order to win an election, complete with many lies and promises that will not be kept.
Everybody loved the Candidate Barack Obama. A brilliant speaker, extremely inspirational, and capable of making anyone scream with patriotism. However, while his presidency wasn't horrific, it wasn't nearly as good as he made us think it would be when he was the Candidate. He fumbled the handoff, the easiest play in sports, and gave us Trump and Biden. He needs to atone for that one.
