And you don't find anything redeeming in the fact that he has come out against the TPP. Cool.

I'll agree that he's crazy.

But occasionally crazy people get things right.

Not too often, but sometimes.

Perhaps you want to think about the whole "enemy of my enemy" scenario.

And before you go off on me: I'm 67 years old. I resisted the draft in the 60's. Moved to the UK in 1970 to avoid said draft. Came back in 1981. Have voted straight Democratic ticket ever since. Protested the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq. Worked the phones for John Kerry and Barack Obama. And I'll vote for the Democratic nominee in 2016 along with supporting qualified Democrats in local, state and national elections.
