He expanded that to the largest black-owned McDonalds franchise chain in the country. He's self-funding his quixotic campaign and is a very interesting guy.

Do you think it's "stupid" for someone who really believes in him, or really believes in O'Malley, to vote for that candidate?

And not Willie Nelson, I don't think you should be calling anyone stupid.
