    I think my favorites were ones never elected, but ran for the office:
    Robert Kennedy
    Eugene Mccarthy
    Mcgovern
    Nader


    But I have to agree with Chomsky who suggested that "Following Nuremberg trial rules, every president since WWII should be hanged for war crimes".
    how the fuck did mccarthy get in there?

    Bobby Kennedy is one of the best...

    but mccarthy? :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:


    he should've been shot instead of Bobby.

    1. Andrew Jackson- He just personifies that southern ruggedness in my opinion. And he was a complete bad ass.


    Have you ever read Howard Zinn's "People's History of the United States"?

    There is an entire chapter dedicated to all the aweful shit that Andrew Jackson was responsible for.

    You don't need to read Howard Zinn to know that Jackson was a genocidal maniac.
    "Things will just get better and better even though it
    doesn't feel that way right now. That's the hopeful
    idea . . . Hope didn't get much applause . . .
    Hope! Hope is the underdog!"
