I will not be a candidate for President of the United States in 2016. If nominated I will not run. If elected I will not serve.

Supreme Consideration

-
As everyone knows (I'm being generous) there is a vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court because of the death of Antonin Scalia. There is a lot discord being sown as to what should happen but it is quite simple, we have a Constitution which guides. President Obama must nominate someone to fill this vacancy because it is his legally charged responsibility to do so. Equally the U.S. Senate must fulfill their Constitutional duty, which is to provide advice and consent. The Senate under a Republican Majority is advising the President not to make a nomination. That advice is incorrect, however, they are under no Constitutional directive to hold hearings or move forward on a nomination if they choose not to. I believe they would be making a mistake not to but on the other hand I am not the Majority Leader of the Senate. Rancor and personal attacks on either side of the aisle is neither helpful nor warranted. If the decision of the Majority is to stay the course they have indicated then so b...

It's Been Heard

Rumors are in the air that President Barack Obama is quietly saying behind the scenes that it's time for Bernie Sanders to get out of the race and support Hillary Clinton. As I write this Sanders just beat Clinton in Alaska and Washington. I have no doubt that these rumors are true, so instead of remaining in the dark I will publicly say to President Obama, it's time for you to shit or get off the pot! Obama has all but come out and formally endorsed Hillary Clinton. He has hinted and insinuated it but even with this simple act he's too cool for school. He may endorse her but only after he's sure there is no way Sanders could pull an upset. He will absolutely campaign for her if she is the nominee because he needs her but no matter what he says, deep down he thinks Bill and Hillary Clinton have an odd odor, something similar to a garlic fart. There are memories of something once enjoyed but now there are unpleasant lingering after effects. Obama's opinions on Sand...

So Long Corn

You know how when you're at the supermarket you see that mass produced coffee cake, it looks good so against your better judgment you buy it. Afterwards you feel vaguely unsatisfied, even a bit queasy. Kind of like the Iowa Caucuses. Thankfully it's behind us now but I wonder how many Iowans have buyer's remorse this morning? The good news is I pretty much nailed it on the outcome, so good for me. This is clear evidence of my political brilliance. Of course I could have been wrong but it wouldn't have been a reflection on my analysis but rather the fault of bad data. The surprise of the night is Marco Rubio coming in at a strong number three, close to Donald Trump's number two. Those high numbers will get Rubio second and third looks in New Hampshire. Hillary Clinton was declared the apparent winner at 4:00A.M. At the time I'm writing the word "apparent" hangs in the air. It's the closest Democratic race in the history of the Iowa Caucuses which...
