I just joined "Draft Joe Scarborough 2012"
March 22, 2010
I'm finding it harder and harder to get excited about politics, politicians and political candidates. Too much "bullshit" as defined by Harry G. Frankfurt of Princeton as defined in his seminal work on the topic and titled, "On Bullshit."
How about doing a "sniffy-sniff" on Joe Scarborough of the MSNBC show Morning Joe? He seems to have both feet firmly planted and seems to know how to avoid the polarizing extremes that seem to be so prevalent right now.
What are the upsides and what are the downsides of having him as the Republican candidate for president in 2012? I joined the "Draft Joe Scarborough 2012" group on its website. Has anybody read his book "Last Best Hope" and what do you think?
