1988 you still needed a WASP candidate. Gary Hart was the man. Dukakis was too ethnic, and because his politics was learned in Massachusetts, he had never run against strong opposition. He didn't know what he was doing. I daresay the majority of our political leaders still hail from the founding families of Mass Bay Colony, including the Bushes.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
