>>I can’t understand why this man cannot get elected to something,........ anything. He sounds radical to most people because he has “founding father” type qualities. Isn’t that desirable in a candidate today?

He could have been our first “black” president. I tried.<<

I have always admired Dr. Keyes. He is not afraid to speak out on what he thinks is right, and that rubs a lot of people the wrong way. The last 20 years really haven’t been kind to Keyes, since he worked for the Reagan White House, but hopefully, now the time is right for someone like him who is not afraid to speak up for what he thinks is right. I’ll support him all the way.

FWIW, that web site is tremendous and I have been reading it everyday for the last few weeks.

I think his eloquence and passion scare most people. Just as Reagan scared many people, I don’t think the average voter will ever give him a shot at anything. Even many Freepers here will pile onto him if he ever gets a foothold in Federal politics. He lives in Chicago, so he is in conservative oblivion. He ran against Obama for Senate and I don’t think he got 30%. That’s a modern day “George Washington” against a mental midget and we get the midget.
