You summed it up pretty well. Bought and paid for is the problem. Isn't there someone thats above reproach anymore? Frank

...has not intention to run. She's just like Trump, all B.S. so as to sell something else. In his case, his TV show. In her case, her speaking tours.

All smoke and mirrors.

My money's on Pawlenty. Obama will defeat him handily, though.

Oh, and Pawlenty is exactly one of those folks that Frank is so against, all marketing and all veils if you look deeply into his record.

So, Frank, what say you on Pawlenty? Or, have you not had a chance yet to seriously consider him?

I am.

I could have made literally tons of money in the insurance field if I could just get that greed thing down. Never seems to work.

You can take the clinician out of the clinic but you can't take a caring clinical attitude out of the clinician. People matter to me more than how fat my wallet might be.

My wife often chides me for spending hours some days advising someone from whom I'll never earn a cent...because I don't like to see someone suffering and I can't turn away from it without helping when helping is so easy to do with my training and education. Anyway, somehow we still manage to live comfortably and I don't have to be like those that I despise in this industry.

File with the election commission. Once you have filed then any monies you take in have to be reported and you have the ability to raise funds for your campaign. Then announce your running and start seeking funds. This is done through corporations and lobbyist . Once you have been bought and paid for you free to run on the agenda that the corporations have dictated for you. Good Luck.

Sounds do-able....LowTide for VP........

I can't say I know anything about the guy (he is a guy, isn;t he?). I don't watch the news channels that I am accused of watching, never seen a Fow or CNN news broad cast that I'm aware of.
Speaking of "re-proach", I am cut from the same stick. I have turned down 60,000.oo sales in engines that I "knew" were not what the customer needed. Yes someone else made hat sale, only to have the said owner call me in about 6 months asking if I could get him out of the jam he got himself into by purchasing them. No sir, my integrity is not for sale, period. Guess that's why I can't figure out why (it seems) everyone else's is. I find satisfaction in telling evryone the truth as I know it. If you do too, then my hat's off to you. See, you're starting to come around. This inter-net thing may work out for you after all. My wife "chides" me too, but that's not what we call it around here.
