I don't think Tom really wanted to be President anyway.

Doesn't matter.

I want him to run in the primary.

Its about the bigger scheme of things.

He can pull the race further to the right, and force republicans to come up with real solutions on immigration.

He sort of keeps everyone else honest even if he can't win.

He isn't going to win it, but he will help make the candidates better prepared, thats more important.

No he won't. Buchanan, Keyes, Forbes and Bauer didn't pull Bush off course in 2000.

A serious candidate has hie eyes focused on November and what it takes to win. He isn't going to be blown of course by some blowhard vanity candidate who's just scamming money off of people with emotional issues who respond to false bravado.
