So I apologize. We'll see what gets fielded by Democrats in 2014 and 2016. No I'm not one of you. But I'd like to be. It's a hell of a lot easier getting a Dem in than getting a third party candidate in, I know that.

Only I have to believe that your candidates are a real alternative first. Your party didn't make that happen for us in the past. Could that change in the future? Sure. And I hope it does.
