| 84. It takes popularity to get elected |
|
Whether we like it or not, an election IS by definition a popularity contest. Kerry's VP choice, of course, is entirely up to him. But one of the things he certainly should be considering is the popularity of his VP choice, because if he picks a VP that people like, it will help him get elected in November.
The intent of the petition is simply to show the strength of our support for John Edwards. This is information that Kerry should find valuable if some of his goals are 1. to represent the people and 2. to pick a running mate who will help him to get elected. We are doing this because we think John Edwards is the best choice for Vice President. If participation in politics and democracy is desperate, fine. Call us desperate.

I think I would rather let John Kerry pick his own VP in his own time. |
