Politics:
Wow, Diane Rehm has Carol Mosely Braun on her radio show today and she (Ambassador Braun) sounds awesome. She actually has a plan for healing the damages done by the Reagan, Bush, and Bush administrations. That puts her several steps ahead of Howard Dean and Wesley Clark, at least in my opinion. I like Dean, but he has been reluctant to express a real plan (though he's great at tearing into Bush's lies and rhetoric). Ambassador Braun is less adept at tearing into Bush's lies and rhetoric, but she has really good ideas and plans about what to do to fix the predicament Bush has us in and she is willing to talk about her ideas and plans.

So, can she get enough attention to run against Bush in the general election? I am not sure, but I really hope she shakes things up a bit this winter. Even if she does not make the primary, I hope she becomes enough of a force that her ideas get adopted by the winner of the Democratic Primary. You can read more about her campaign for president at
