#11 Think of it as an efficient way to get more money out of passive investments to circulate through the economy, as those who sponsored Jeb, etc.to the tune of multiple millions have already done. So much better than the government priming the pump with borrowed money in a semi-Keynesian frenzy, it seems to me. On the other hand, Mrs. Clinton told him today he needn't bother, as this is her row to hoe. |

#4 He's also a soda-grabbing megalomanic dickhead, in case anyone is interested. I see a lot of similarities between him and 0dickhead. |

#3 Whoops - 'independent' bid (riiight) - see above, but he'd pull more Bernie votes than anything else. I don't think he'll have any serious impact overall. |

#2 Gun grabber, nanny state dickhead - if he runs as a Dem, I'm guessing he pulls votes from Bernie. If he runs as a 'Pub, he'll get the Jeb! / Kasich votes. |

#1 Would he peel off more of the independents that would vote for Trump vs. liberals voting for whatever the Donks end up putting up for election? |
