35. I was a Clarkie until he dropped out. I think what hurt him
was that he never held an elected office before.

He was the best candidate for defense and homeland security.

He was most-likely the smartest candidate (Rhodes Scholar).

But I think he remained a mystery to many people because he didn't have an elected office where people could look at his record to see what they thought of him. I also think that's the main reason the media overlooked him oftentimes.

I really wish he would run for Governor or Senate. After one term in office, he would really be the perfect candidate for us.
