303. It's a vote for small change (no pun intended) -- so what's the one for "real change?"
What is a vote for "real change?"

A vote for Kucinich? I love him, but what does it change?

Gravel? He favors mob rule without protection for the minority at all -- there's a hair-raising interview with Mike Malloy that's well worth a listen. Besides, what will voting for him change?

Gore -- this is the big surprise to me among "lefties." Gore is not all THAT liberal, let alone left. I think he's great, I was a strong supporter in 2000, but he is NOT a hard-core lefty. He became a favorite when he was seen as outspoken, which is, I think, often confused with political ideology. (That is, it's called "left" if it's heartfelt, impassioned, bold, and 'red meat'ish...)
