14. Why would anyone want this racist asshole to be the focus of 2012?
"I won!" he can claim as he gets his 1-to 15 percent of the total in a three-way race. "This is a clear victory for me. I entered this race to make sure the important issues are addressed by the Democratic and Republican candidates. And I forced them to talk about the issues. So I saved democracy by elevating the tone of the campaigns. And I single-handedly improved the quality of our political system. It is all because of me."

And he's also delusional enough to think he can actually set a precident and actually win as an independent.


An advertiser pulled support from his show and people are calling for NBC to drop him. So the best thing for him to do is run?

Are you envisioning boycotts as a major 2012 campaign issue?

The GOP field is already a circus. There doesn't need to be a freak show added to the mix.

If he decides to run, will his supporters acknowledge they're supporting a racist?

Of course, it's too much to ask of the media to focus on the issues.
