For some jokes, the less you know, the more you enjoy it.
This idea of electing a king ... I guess that some people when asked "What is the difference between electing a president and electing a king?" would answer something like "It is about the same, isn't it - just a different name?"
So those of us who do know the difference, can have a good laugh at how ignorant some people are.
(The funny thing is that if you make a joke based on the opposite misunderstanding, e.g. talking about the heir to the presidency of the union, referring to biological heirness, it might very well be a deliberate political statement and no real misunderstanding. At least under some presidents.)

After operation, the man wakes up.
When he sees the doctor, he asks. "How am I doing?"

Man: What is the bad news?
Doctor: We cut off the wrong leg.
Man: oh no, oh no, no, no. that is terrible.
After much distress, the man asks: "what is the good news?"

Another Doctor joke.
The phone rings and the lady of the house answers,
"Hello."
"Mrs. Smith, please."
"Speaking."
"Mrs. Smith, this is your Doctor from Max Laboratory.
When your husband's doctor sent his blood sample to the lab last week, a blood sample from another Mr. Smith arrived as well...
We are now uncertain which one belongs to your husband.
Frankly, either way the results are not too good."
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Smith asks nervously.
"Well, one of the specimens tested positive for Alzheimer's (memory loss) and the other one tested positive for HIV.
We can't tell which is which."
"That's dreadful! Can you do the test again?" questioned Mrs. Smith.
"Normally we can, but Insurance will only pay for these expensive tests once."
"Well, what am I supposed to do now?"
"The Insurance Helpdesk recommends that you drop your husband off somewhere in the middle of town.

A blonde sits in first class on a plane to New York. But she only has a tourist class ticket.
The steward tries to ask her out, but she doesn't go. The stewardess tries again, but in vain.
She tells the pilot. He goes to her and whispers something in the blonde's ear. She gets up immediately and leaves the first class.
"What did you tell her?" the others ask curiously.
The pilot: "I just told her that first class flies to London."

So, hair colors darken with age, hence the association with youth and general idiocy. That's why we ridicule blondes, a generalization. Not discrimination, since that requires a religion, a gender-thingy, or a skin color. According to law, if you discriminate based on hair color, you safe.
Also, where did that plane take off? I'd expect a transfer in London if going to NY, because I'd be coming from Amsterdam. Might be a little different in you took of in Washington.

My first trip to the US was here, in the Netherlands. There's an army base nearby, and part of Brundisium is "US soil". That makes us a vassal, occupied territory
