So he is not an MD? I'm sure he would say so if that was the case. Was he actually ever elected as Governor of Vermont? His web site bio states he took over upon the death of the governor, from the lieutenant governor's position.

I think he is a major looney-tune and the fact that he is even considered a 'serious' candidate shows how desperate the dims are.

"So he is not an MD?"
Wrong, he is an MD, just like Frist, except he has a specialty. I choose to go to an internist, instead of a GP (General Practioner). Doctors don't usually refer to themselves as "only" a doctor, but go by their higher degree title. Engineers even go by titles other than just engineer, EE, CE....
