THE REINCARNATION OF HAROLD STASSEN!

Observation of the Day!

Ralph Nader once again joined the political fray in the run for president! Do we have another Harold Stassen on our hands? For those youngsters who may not know about Harold Stassen of Minnesota, he ran for President in nine straight presidential elections (1948-1992) with a bad toupee. In all those runs he garnered all of two delegate votes. Early in his career he may have been a viable candidate, but eventually he became a caricature of himself and loony as a jaybird.

Ralph Nader AGAIN! Oh, Please! Give us a break! The Corvair died a long time ago. His campaign slogan should be, " Loony as a Jaybird and Unsafe at Any Speed"

Have a nice day!

The understanding in our family is that Uncle Harold ran because it provided a platform to share his ideas. While it is easy to overlook the things in life that do not come with numbers attached to them, they are still valuable - more important than the two delegates is the chance others had to hear his ideas, form their own, and apply these ideas to their lives.
