2. Wish THIS guy was the millionaire.

Peaceful, smart, kind, inquisitive, hard-working, resourceful, can-do-attitude.

A real Democrat.

5. It's a disgrace that someone needs to be a millionaire to run for office

It's class warfare. The U.S. Congress, working people need not apply.

7. You got it, Stephanie. All we regular folk got are ideas.

And that's the Truth.

Maybe that could be used, jiu-jitsu-like:

"The air waves belong to ALL Americans, not just the rich.

"If they did their jobs, elections would be fair.

"All Americans would know they should be against the war because it is wrong.

"You see, ideas are stronger than bullets.

"That's why so many politicians are against good public schools -- and college educations -- for everyone.

"Enlightened people are a threat to those who need lies to maintain power.

"An informed electorate is what makes Democracy strong.

"Informed Americans are why America is strong."

Sorry to sound preachy, Stephanie. You know all that.

3. I'll give this a K and an R

Tasini represents what all Democrats should stand for.

No more, no less.

Too bad he's dismissed as a "fringe" candidate. In a sane world, he'd be a normal Democrat.
