I don't think you're qualified to judge the "reasons" why everyone else would run, I think it's very childish on your part to try and make yourself look bigger and better then other people by putting them down. but then again, maybe i'm wrong.
I think you're being childish by assuming I lack the qualifications to make observations and judgements. I'm sorry, I'm an adult and am qualified to have an opinion. My opinion is that a lot of elections are popularity contests.
Secondly, you are clearly putting words in my mouth I did not say. While I was clear to say that "most people" (which is a percentage above 50%) would fall under this catagory, you said that I was speaking of "everyone else."
Now, you can infer that I feel bigger and better than the other people running. I don't blame you. I am a strong speaker, and my opinions are clear. This is part of making a strong argument. I am sorry I threatened you in making my argument to sell myself, but I never put any specific person or persons down in my statement.
I can not believe you would think that in an election, it's "childish" to make yourself out to be better than the other canidates.
