The Limbaugh/Hannity remark was rhetorical in nature and meant to make a point. As with the successful businessman, Ross Perot, neither Limbaugh or Hannity could win the gop nomination. The point being. Get elected to a lower position like House, Senate or Governor before you set your sight on the ultimate prize. The Founders did promote citizen legislators and not lifetime politicians. In the last 235 years, things have changed quite a bit. If Jefferson was to reappear today, I'm confident he would find political reevaluation priority #1.

No reason to get so touchy. I didn't set myself up as the arbiter of who is electable or who isn't. That is not the primary function of political debate. Just because someone gets themselves on TV doesn't mean they know WTF they're talking about.

Btw, if you're going to quote someone, properly delineate from your verbiages so as not to confuse with editorializing.

Not trying to be critical in any way. I am confused about what exactly you want. I put Franlin’s words in quotes and blank lines both above and below to separate his words from mine.

Never mind, I got confused about which post you were refering to. Sorry I made a mistake and messed up my html tags after running the spell check.
