    Turn your criticism-gun toward Stewart. What have you got on him? Why shouldn’t he be president?

      I like Jon but don’t believe celebrities should run for office. He’s also repeatedly said he has no interest in years past, so this is just a pipe dream for liberals.

        I like Jon but don’t believe celebrities should run for office.

        Why?

        I mean, my racist grandfather said similar about Obama.

        He’s also repeatedly said he has no interest in years past.

        Years past, we all thought other people would step up to do the job. With the state of the world today, he might just be convinced that he needs to be the change he wants to see.

        It’s a pipe dream, right up until the time that it isn’t.

          Ok, so you be the change you want to see.

          You don’t want to? Well, that’s how Jon probably feels.

            What makes you think I don’t want to. Anyone who is sucking down air should be wanting to intervene. Not everyone has the capability and support to actually do it. I certainly don’t. Stewart does.

            If he knew two years ago what he knows today, I have no doubt that he would have stepped up.

              Don’t encourage this Asshole anymore. He’s clearly a unhelpful walrus who can’t see past their own nose.
