I worked with "davis fleetwood" on the Kucinich Campaign. He said, he was having flashbacks to it.
I think the video that you are responding to is more addressing that. Ron Paul's candidacy is and was a thousand times more legitimate than Dennis Kucinich's.
But then Ron Paul isn't a fringe candidate-- anymore.
I think what "Davis" had to say is rather poignant in a general criticism, and should be taken to heart by anybody outside of the Dem/Rep duopoly.
With Obama and Clinton so often compared to a Mac vs. a PC running Windows, I've become resigned to the fact that Gravel is the Linux of this race: he may have few supporters, but we stick with him because he wants to open the source code of our government, up to and including giving us the power to recompile our nation's kernel by amending the Constitution.
PS, I love your Stereo Bus blog. Just about every post is an educational experience.
Mike is putting the Libertarian party on the map in a serious way. not to mention making it more it more inviting to others that are less informed or illinformed about the party's true platform
Davis as fun as he is to watch i think he does have an agenda of maintaining a certain profile on youtube. which means he's going to play it safe to a certain degree.
Gravel's my guy too and has been since the start of the campaign, no matter what happened.
