[Dr.Zoidberg]

Every time we vote the lesser of two evils, evil wins. The only option is to find, run and support good and honorable people.

A task Diogenes would find daunting I know, but one we have to get behind.

So what if everyone screams and flails around saying your candidate can’t win for whatever specious reason, unless we do something radical like running honest men for public office, we’ll keep getting people like Ted Kennedy and John McCain.

Or Mike “Hang Whitey” Nifong.

[B.O. Plenty]

I agree, Dr., but what if an honorable man does not choose to put himself into the personal jeopardy that is sure to come if he has the audacity to run for a public office.

It has to be a horrible experience to have something that you did in the passion and exuberance of your youth...something that you have tried to erase from your mind for years, suddenly brought to light for all to see.

The people who have no shame, those that would think nothing of the public ridicule...would also think nothing of using their position for personal gain.....power and financial...grand and petty theft like stealing furniture from the White House, for instance.

I think that there are a lot of people who would make a great and honest public servant who will not risk having their past dragged thru the shiite.

Why certainly: don't vote for the guy NOT fanning the flames of an all out race war because the OTHER guy IS fanning the flames of an all out race war because they're all scum. That makes Paul and Tancredo scum too, no matter what ideological position they take. Pot does strange things to the brain.
