What about Michael Dukakis? [View All]

[Prefer]

This may be his moment. Seriously.

A lot of people said a Greek American can never win the presidency, but that was then. I think the electorate has changed significantly.
It might be a little bit of an uphill battle, but I think it's a fight worth taking on. After all, he may lose the GE, but think of what a statement it would make about our ideas and ideals - that we sill believe in the same things we believed in back then.

A time like this is not a time to stay comfortable and lazy with a "safe" victory. There's nothing really on the line in the General Election, so now is the time to go for it in terms of making a progressive statement with our selection. So I nominate Michael Dukakis for President in 2008.
