4. Amazing disdain on DU for the guy who ended the draft....
I guess one needs to, in order to support warmonger candidates...

6. I would find great relief if Gravel were nominated.
I think people are unaccustomed to a candidate simply speaking like a human being. He does that. And it seems to bother people. I love the guy. He's far more sophisticated than most of our candidates.

9. No. I did hear that interview.
I was disappointed with Malloy. Although I don't remember it now. I just remember my sense at the end.

11. Listen again to the Malloy interview.
Go to http://www.novamradio.com/ and find the July 10,2007 archive. That sicko believes that a flat tax on a loaf of bread is just, but if you buy a share or 1000 of GE your purchase should be tax free. Because corporate profits are essential to the survival of capitalism, and one or a million human lives are not as important as that ideal.

12. I agree, that sounds crazy.
I just don't have the patience for the xm signup thing. I'm busy and I'd listen. I just went there, and they insist I sign up to listen. Argh.

I think each candidate has their weak points. That seems like a big one. I wish the country would stop sandbagging Kucinich. He's my choice.

I'll try listening when I'm not doing fifty things.

And thanks for the reply. I obviously know bits and pieces. We all do.

8. Completely agree. Gravel got the Pentagon Papers into the Congressional Record.
Gravel is brave and he has plenty of brains and backbone, a rarity among younger politicians.
