There are many like him, who are the “second tier” candidates?
The homosexual mayor of South Bend, Indiana, is another. He’s officially a declared candidate, but, hardly given any chance.
I think some of these presidential candidates, are really running for vice-president, hoping to write a book because of getting some publicity, hoping to become an MSNBC news contributor, or perhaps get a cabinet position in a Democrat presidential administration.
I am actively tracking 52 "notable" people (who have either announced or have stated that they are exploring the possibility of running. Almost all of them holding current political office. I would not be surprised if this got to 100 people by this time next year.
So far, I would say all of them.
