The public made him, yes. And how he choose to respond was to bend over like a bitch, then fail at doing even that... also like a bitch. Never once has he put forward anything other than a pathetic desire to appease nonsense... I personally am sick to death of that type of politician.
I realize that he may be the best choice, based on policy, but that is a sad state of affairs that needs to change.
On a side note, I am considering a run for political office based on the principles of Gonzo.
