The Early Bird and All That
Remember back in grade school, when that one kid... you know the one I mean... would always jump to the front of the line? No matter what it was... go to recess, go to lunch, take a quiz... s/he always had to be first. Looks like the DNC has their very own "me first" kid...
Let's see... Senator Gravel will be celebrating his 76th birthday next month... which will make him 78 years young at the time of the election. (OK... he'll get the AARP vote). While a Senator, he wrote a book advocating a "guaranteed annual income" whether or not the person actually worked. (uh... isn't that called... what is that word???? oh, yeah... WELFARE?) He's behind a "National Initiave for Democracy" which tried to introduce a Constitutional Amendment to allow "voter initiated federal legislation" (which would be cool... if we lived in a democracy... which we don't... and, yeah... that's what we need... more legislation.) Oh, yeah... and he's the moonbat that had the Pentagon Papers published.
Unless Kucinich runs again, this guy might be the most fun we have... but I'm sure the DNC will come up with some other fun and frivolity for us.
