Now, I have no right to comment, really.

Given the UK’s current prime minister’s sad inability to take any notice of the will of the people (whilst I’m wary of the people having too much control, it’s easy for a large group of people, say the citizens of a nation, to get riled up and angry about something which – given 6 months of consideration they’d say ‘oh yeah, that was dumb’; but our current government seems to ignore the UK population completely), and my personal opinion for Mr Blair’s policies I can hardly say the UK is any (f**king) prize when it comes to international politics at the moment. But, at any rate, I came across this link yesterday; which introduces a candidate for the US Presidential election (via inspector_81) – and I found myself in the disconcerting position of largely agreeing with an American politician.

I mean, I agree with a lot of what Al Gore has to say about the environment, but since he’s not running then…

So then I came on this morning and bluwyngz has posted a link to the full transcript, which bizarrely I’ve read…and was surprised. I mean he sounds confident to the point of being irritating, but when you read the transcript of the talk he says things like: ” What we need to do is to begin to deal with the rest of the world as equals. And we don’t do that.”, I come over all surprised.

So, anyhow; yes, interesting candidate. Still – he’s pretty much got to be better than Bush.
