Reply #33: President Conyers 2007: NOT QUITE the pipe dream it might seem

[Senator]

(repost from a few months back)

I would wage dollars to doughnuts that the vast majority of "informed" anti-neofascist people (including the rank and file Dem base) would love to "be able" to support John Conyers for our next Elected President of the United States.

I think the reality is that most however are fearful to even think in that direction. (Sort of an unspoken, "Liberal, and aged, and black. Oh My!")

That said, I also think that we here at DU could start the ball rolling and actually MAKE HIM PRESIDENT in 2007. Yes, really.

The process is discussed in this post from a couple months back.

The main thing to keep in mind is that "success" of such an effort (which I'd put at not quite 50/50, but not far worse) is secondary. Engaging in the effort itself could go a long way toward helping the Dems to "run the table" in 2006 and 2008.
