2016? I think he could do the job. I'd vote for a new voice to follow.

1. I LIKE him.

I'd definitely vote for his clear, strong voice, and the actions that accompany it.

:hi:

[Fearless]

2. If he denounces corporate money and influence and follows through on the promise... yes

Unequivocally. The same goes for any Democratic candidate.

3. Unfortunately, he's said over and over again he despises Washington DC

and when he retires from the governorship, that will be it for politics.

The DLC/Wall Street/New Democrat power brokers would never allow him to win the nod, anyway. They'd do everything in their power to stop it.

Also, look at how they saddled Obama with Wall Street Democrats in his administration. There's probably a limit to what he'd be able to accomplish, and I think he's smart enough to know it.

Until there is a massive change within the party (and it's already happened at the grass roots), we will continue to chug on toward US, the biggest third world country on the planet.

4. Don't wish that on him.

He seems very happy where he is.

5. Met the guy.

Love him, but he doesn't wanna be president. Energy or Interior secretary, maybe.

6. He's my favorite cowboy politician...

He's part of what makes Montana, the last best place. I'd hate to see him in stuck in DC, but I do love his style. :)
