First, to preface: I'm having a bit of an internal conflict with the whole presidential race thing. I'm caught between my introduction to Ron Paul and never in a million years thinking I'd see that in front a national audience, and the later revelation that the political machine as a whole needs to be rethought.
Of course, my enthusiasm came well before I realized he never intended to become president.
But for now, the election junkie (http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/election.png) in me wins over.
I've been thinking about Gary Johnson (not in a sexual way or anything), and how, despite his great policies, I doubt he could captivate an audience.
Schiff seems to have a little more strength in this department, though, and others can only succeed by shouting him down.
Has Peter said anything about a potential presidential, senatorial, gubernatorial, or congressional office run?
If not, or if he's open to it, I think I'd rather devote my time to a Schiff draft of some sort. What, I don't know.
