OK, so you have your opinion.
In my opinion you are wrong to criticize Perry, Bachmann, Palin etc. just because they decided to run and serve at the same time.
Just because you dont like what practically EVERY POLITICIAN WHO RUNS FOR RE-ELECTION DOES, doesn’t make it unethical.
You are changing the argument. I said running for president while holding another public office.
Pols who simply run for re-election do so by performing their job and traveling amongst their constituency.
But thanks for the meaningless scream caps.
