There's no way Buddy Roemer can win
Edited on Sat Oct-29-11 07:25 PM by loyalsister
but, if he were to raise some real money under the conditions he stated ($100 limit\full disclosure) it seems like it could make a strong statement in favor of political reforms we would all like to see.
He has some very sensible opinions that are consistent with what OWS is saying. AND he respects the protestors. I don't want to elect a republican, but I do appreciate hearing from someone who is principled and has potential to stimulate a thoughtful and valuable dialogue. I wish he was in the debates!
Would it be anti- DU to advocate making a small donation?

1. He is the most rational republican I have seen of late. Since he is
not Democratic I don't think his promotion would be helpful here. We need support for a presidential candidate who has the best chance to beat any republican. That would be Barack Obama.

2. Agreed
I wouldn't want him elected. Just want to continue to hear his voice in the discussion.
