We owe Dean, Clark, DK, Graham, Gep, Braun, Sharpton a huge Thank you
I should also include Lieberman too.

These people deserve our thanks because they did decide to run for president and oppose GW Bush. I like some more than others, but each of them brought important issues to the table.

Dean--The Democratic party must stand up to Bush
DK--the most ardent anti-war voice in the campaign
Sharpton--Everybody regardless of race must be included
Graham--Bush used faulty intelligence
Braun--standing up for women and inclusiveness
Gep--whatever you may think of him, he is an economic populist who rightly labeled Bush "a miserable failure."
Clark--Standing up for our veterans.
Lieberman--well...

Anyway they all had their supporters on DU (even Lieberman had one or two) and while we vigorously disagreed with each other during the primaries and felt our individual candidates were the best choice for president--I admire the fact that these people fought the good fight and now are working to elect Kerry/Edwards. They are all Great Americans.

1. I second that emotion
Maybe we can each write a letter, if you're so inclined to all of them or those you feel most impressed you. I love them ALL!!
