“Wouldn’t you rather have a “reluctant candidate” than someone who’s dreamed of the “power and the glory” since they were in high school?”
No, the job is pretty demanding, so if Fred really wants to be president, he should start running a little bit harder, and convince the American People why he should get the job.
My opinion aside, if Fred doesn’t start getting traction pretty soon it won’t matter anyway. If he wants the job he needs to start out hustling the rest of the field.
What is your evidence that Fred isn't running hard?
He's convinced me. What does he need to do to convince you?
