Looks like a decision on whether or not he will be running could come soon! Would be awesome to have another Miamian as president

This is not starting a political debate, just throwing it out there that a Miamian could be in the mix

I would be interested to see Ryan's versatility. Every time I've seen him talk he has been very impressive but has always struck me as a little too cerebral (nerdy?) to be sucessful in a Presidential race.

Would be fun though!

See Crispin Glover in his most challenging role. When it comes to budgetary fiscal responsibility, there can be only one.

Mild manner congressman by day


Ass kicking budget battling ninja by night


With this role, Crispin Glover is sure to be nomiated for an Academy Award!

He's already denied the rumors.

He will certainly be on the short-list for VP for whomever emerges with the Republican nomination next year.

It is just another sign I'm getting old; the idea that a dude I was in class with could be a "heartbeat away."

Crying or Very sad

And hey, on the bright side, some would say he is still too young to be President Wink

I know what you mean. It seems like yesterday when Benjamin Harrison (we called him Ben back then) and I were throwing snowballs from the second floor of Stoddard Hall at students walking across central quad. Crying or Very sad
