If you had found the right candidate in 2000 or 2004, and you could have put that man or woman, given them ballot access in September of the election year, they could have won the election.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You have had presidential candidates over the last 30 years who would have had a very hard time getting nominated under the old system. One example is John Kennedy.
I could have possibly beaten Senator McCain in the primary. Then I could have been the candidate who lost to Barack Obama.
I don't think anyone should pick a candidate for any office based solely on gender. That would be, I believe, a mistake.
If the gods had intended for people to vote, they would have given us candidates.
We can take this country back. All we need is to nominate the right candidate. It's no more complicated than that.
I don't see a candidate on the scene right now, but it is going to have to be a candidate that people can look at as a leader and not as a man or a woman.
We would all like to vote for the best man but he is never a candidate.
You can't be the candidate and the campaign manager.
Elections are won by men and women chiefly because most people vote against somebody rather than for somebody.
I would never say somebody had to vote for anybody. That would be terrible. I haven't said that.
