70. It's not about looks.
It is about perception. Looking back from Bush to Nixon, many candidates are odd looking. Evil George is plain odd looking. But, if the media machine is behind a candidate they can make you like their candidate.

Sadly, the majority of voters watch Chuck Norris and Matlock re-runs. Neither is a handsome man. But, with lots of TV time people grow accustomed to a face. Dennis can not break the conservative media blockade.

Dennis speaks only in rational, factual sets of information. That confuses the general public. Huckabee says their is another fist under Chuck Norris' beard. An interesting Bushism. Confuse em and it will be perceived as right.

As a hypnotist, I study advertising for trance words. Dennis in his last few days would gain more ground by using his impish look to penetrate media by attacking Lou Dobbs, Chris Matthews, etc. (Some of the names I can't say because my tongue burns when I speak them.). He would get needed air time and be seen as a "peace fighter".

Dennis is too real in an "unreal world". Get loose and go for it, Dennis. Please send Dennis great Kucinichisms. "dealing a death blow to capital punishment".

I would like to have a leader like Dennis.
