Reply #20: You are probably correct in that Gore won't run. [View All]

Both John and Barack will make amazing presidents if they win the nomination and get elected. If either is nominated, I am there 100% with enthusiasm all the way. Count on it.

I did oppose the Clintons vigorously in 1992 as part of Jerry Brown's national campaign and was his delegate to the national convention. But Bill & Hillary whipped the hell out of the left wing of the party. We even had a counter convention with Brown, Tom Hayden, Jesse Jackson, Gore Vidal sponsored by The Nation, but I'm an older guy than most all here at the DU and I have seen only one great nominee in my adult life: George McGovern four years after Robert Kennedy was murdered.

I've come to see the Democratic Party through different eyes and for all of its many problems, it's the best and only thing we have and, the truth is, I think that after GW Bush, the American working class may have finally caught on to the truth about the other party.

Don't shoot me for supporting Hillary. I just can not find it within me anymore to criticize any of our candidates.
