(755 posts)Ed is a good man. Personally, I think Ed should have ran for president in '16. He's tough, and he would destroy Walker in a debate.

(115,976 posts)I like him as a radio/tv talk show host but he wouldn't have a snowball's chance in hell to be elected president.

(41,199 posts)Heilman's Focus Group that's all over M$M for 2 days. I wonder why, the Donald also has zero govt. experience.
The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,976 posts)is the best qualification for the presidency, notwithstanding that government is nothing like private business (and you might question how successful Trump really is, considering that he inherited wealth in the first place and has bankrupted four companies - but that's another story). There are also people who like the fact that he has no filter and says the terrible things they are thinking. If Trump actually got the nomination - which I doubt will happen - he'll be flattened by the Democratic candidate. I wouldn't be surprised if he ran as a third party candidate because he has no real loyalty to the GOP and his ego would get such a kick out of being the spoiler.

(41,199 posts)TV entertainer with inherited wealth, bankruptcies and dubious business achievements is even being considered as a presidential candidate by the GOP, a clown the M$M is spending extraordinary time on daily and weekly. Go USA!

(41,199 posts)said in his wonderful msg. Hope I didn't seem blunt, too pushy about FSTV. I really see us loosing ground bit, by bit esp. with the impt. media, although the internet is vast. The hope that Bernie brings is magnificent and so many followers inspiring and determined. Tonight I viewed the Ed Show w/ replacement Michael Eric Dyson like last night; it seemed there's a slightly different tone, to be expected or maybe it's me.
'Jimmy Carter: The US is an Oligarchy..' interview 2 days ago I saw Thom H. do. Pres. Carter is 90, very sharp yet gracious and has a new book out now. Saw him debate Ford, and met him at a book signing tribute work for mother Lillian 5-6 yrs. ago.
In this OP there's also a comment, #37 with a chart of CEO to worker pay ratio in Japan, Europe, Canada, US that was very disturbing to see in real nos. although I'd heard this for several years. People must really organize and work together as Bernie and many are emphasizing now.

(41,199 posts)Sorry
In the Link I sent above on Jimmy Carter's 'Oligarchy' comment OP, the info. CHART in #37 that was staggering:
I've been trying to bring around a highly intelligent but stubborn relative about the state of the US and world. If this chart doesn't convince them, I must give up- for a while!

(41,199 posts)so very ignorant and scary in sincerely following Trump, the huckster for Pres.! I'd take Ed as President in a heartbeat!

(9,086 posts)He can still do some great work but it won't reach as many people.
I'll follow him though.
