if anyone "deserves" to be President

it's Al Gore.

Agreed, but I still have reservations about someone who spent millions to become president, then backed away from the final battle.

That was our money, the businesses that donated simply marked up the price of their products to cover it.

I also think he knew 9/11 was coming, but he was afraid to stand against the perps, (Schultz, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz, etc.) and decided he would not be "on watch" when it happened.

We need even more than a Clinton, we need someone with the will to call out the corruption, and so far I see no one on either side.

The Fascist, Freaks and Fundies are going nuts on this one! LOL There's no Ghost in the Closet with this one that they can scare people with, no Swift Boat Ad's to run here. So all they have is Bigotry... fear of the strong woman and that just isn't going to fly. The American People know Hillary Clinton and the Fascist and fundies spent 6 years and 70 billion dollars trying to dig up dirt on her so the chance that rumors and mud slinging will help isn't even in the cards. All she has to do is win the states that Gore/Kerry won and ONE swing state. Yep, America is on the brink of making history folks. Can all you Nazi's say Madam President? Sieg Heil Bush!!

H.C. is the only candidate with the organization, national recognition, financing, political support, experience, and image to make it all come together on the Democratic side.

Add to the fact the Republicans are a train wreck still looking for a clue, and its seems more and more like H.C. wins by default.

That might change if the Republicans can find someone to excite thier Evangelical base. But don't hold your breath on that.

Fred T. is noone's saviour. He knows it. And so does everyone else.

H.C. wins by a razor sharp margin against anyone the Republicans are putting up right now.

Gore still hasn't officially said he wouldn't run.
He has to know that he could almost surely win. I bet tons of people would jump on the Gore donation bandwagon. That goes for big money and small money.
The first polls that would show up a week or so after a dramatic announcement would show him to be very electable. The money would start flowing. Also, he knows that the Democratic candidate has a great chance of winning in 2008. If it isn't him, he may have to wait 8 more years for his chance. He'd be nearly 69 by that time and his odds have to be extremely low looking that far ahead. He must know this really could be the last chance.
I'm betting Al Gore will run for President.

Yeah right... Edwards wrote most of the patriot act. Scratch that *** off the list. Notice they didn't include Dennis Kucinich or Ron Paul in their poll?

These two are not insiders, not part of the crime syndicate that has a grip on D.C.

I really think since we can't get fair election, since we don't have an honest press, since the health care industry has been take over by insurance companies, etc. and believe me I could go on all night about the corruption, I think it is time for the States to begin to succeed from the union.

I know this much, it will soon be the richest state in North America if and when they do. We are being bled to death by corporate corruption.

George Bush I , 4 years
Bill Clinton, 8 years
bushit jr., 8 years

H. Clinton ?????

if she would win, which is highly questionable, it means that between these extermely polarizing people, America has had 20 YEARS, maybe more.

Do we want that?

I doubt it - more of the same isn't an option anymore.

Give us Obama, or Edwards!!!

Yep, me, too. I'm in Texas and it's currently past 2 a.m.

Thanks for the fond memories.

Arkansas truly is one of my favorite states and I have some very fond memories of the times I spent there.

Have a good evening and a great tomorrow.
