"... and focus the Campaign on Populist Economic Issues (a la Huey Long)"

What you got right now is the best President that Wall Street ever purchased for itself. Good luck with the economic populism. As long as Obama is President that's the Republicans' issue not ours. If you were looking for an anti-populist, it would be very very difficult to find one more suited to that purpose than Obama, by his record. Geithner, Bernanke, no prosecutions of bankers, ball-busting deficits largely driven by various bailout programs, etc. etc. The only anomalous data point is the appointment of Elizabeth Warren, but she had enormous public support and it would have been very difficult to say no to her.

Now if you want to run Elizabeth Warren for President, sign me up to that agenda.
