mentioned by anyone as a possibility? He will always have a place in the story of how the Walker regime was resisted - but what really has he been doing in the last 40 years to prepare himself for this moment? Whoever it is will need to be a master communicator and master consensus builder who can work with diverse needs/wishes of everyone who'se come together to do this. Don't think it's him, sorry....
