		To whom,
	



	I really enjoy having Buchanan in the race.  He's always provided me
with hours of laughs.  However, as much as I enjoy the man, and his confused
attempts at populism, he is starting to sound a little fascist.  I mean,
linking working class antagonism with isolationism; linking resentment of
"men with green eye shades" and resentment of Mexicans; this combination is a
little troubling. Now, I'm sure it's all in good fun, and Buchanan's glaring
flaws as a politician and a person may even show real economic populists an
opportunity to knock him off his high horse and get something started, but it
is a little worrisome to think that the total package might be taken
seriously.  


	For now, I'll sit back, relax and watch Dole try to be a socialist. 
Who even cares if Seinfeld is on?





	peace
