The way I see it, it's the majority of the American population that doesn't have what it takes to support a decent candidate. I guess I'm just disgusted that Bill Bradley and John McCain were not the 2000 Democratic and Republican candidates, respectively. Gore and Bush? Please.
Jon Stewart posed a good question to Kucinich which was something to the effect of " Are you a longshot because you're outspoken, or are you outspoken because you're a longshot? " Unforutnately, I think the former is what holds more weight (for Kucinich anyway; Sharpton fits the latter). Pandering is the bane of politics and, not surprisingly,a great source of power.
