As with most US politicians, the only answer they could concieve is run the
guy with the most money, and hope to use the media to discredit the other
guys. This is business as usual, and I don't think a leopard can change his
spots. I don't have a problem with any person having strong ideals and
moral convictions, I respect a person who does, but I don't believe that
the US should have a president that would force the country to live by the
moral convictions of a small segment of society. If the Republicans can do
no better than Buchannon, then it seems we are to have Clinton for another
4 years.
