Maybe I wasn't clear. What would be the motivation for one to seek the presidency, but not desire to be president?

Maybe a Paulson for publicity, or a Nader to make a point, but Obama has as much of a chance to become president as did Ross Perot or Theodore Roosevelt in their respective three way bids. Each could have been president.

So, what do you think would be the motivations of a person to spend millions of dollars and a great amount of time to pursue an office they couldn't hold?

Seems to me that someone is asking an aweful lot of questions. Almost like examining a witness.
