Silly me I thought the role of news organizations was to inform their consumers and not to cure their own boredom. In our system, it may make sense to name an incumbent who is still qualified to run but by naming a self generated list violates time honored tradition by becoming the news rather than reporting the news.

Your comment that this is still a free country is one reason we are experiencing many of our problems. There are times when liberty and freedom are better served by recklessly asserting our rights to the detriment of a civilized society. By assiduously asserting our rights others' rights are also preserved. Our rights are unalienable and do not atrophy from non use.

Our rights are unalienable and do not atrophy from non use.

Ronald Reagan might disagree with you over the atrophy part.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction."
