After watching this, I am ready to vote for our first Jewish President...
He appears very courageous and presidential in this press conference. I could see him on a ticket with John Edwards or Al Gore, either at the top or bottom of the ticket. But this is what our Party needs : courage.

1. This is how I view it...
History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.--Maya Angelou

Peace.

5. First time I've watched him at a question and answer session
Handles himself very well, pleasant to listen to. I sure want to see him on the ticket and he will be i think. After his taking a stand theres a lot of people that would want him to be in the Whitehouse. Al Gore and Russ Feingold is a pair that couldn't be beat or be beat up on. Above the fray so to say.

6. He was reasonable, articulate, calm, sure of himself.
He had a cool passion somewhat Kennedyesque. He appeared to know what to say well before the question was finished. His responses were thoughtful, but not excessively so. I felt very comfortable with him. I have not considered him a serious candidate for President before today. I may have to reevaluate.

8. Completely agree with you.
I was quite impressed with him and would give his candidacy a great deal of consideration...

9. Frankly, I could care less what religion he/she practices
As long as they can lead, that's the important thing.

Sadly, my fellow citizens have a bugaboo about that.
