Leftofthedial had a great idea I want to float to everyone: RON RGAN elect

[Tweed]

Get Ron Regan elected to office!

[leftofthedial]

1. wow. thanks for noticing

he's articulate, insightful, knowledgeable and thinks fast on his feet.

[Tweed]

2. Yeah, I didn't want to steal your thunder, but sometimes things get buried

Maybe an expanded media role suits him better than a political one.

Either way, I think he'd be great.

7. Are you trying to get Ron killed?

See JFK, MLK, Malcolm X, RFK, JFK Jr, Wellstone...

8. that's a sick, but valid issue in Murka

how sad that we think that
