BUZZFLASH REVIEWS

BuzzFlash has long had a tradition of not endorsing a Democratic candidate running for President in the primaries. That's because we believe that our readers should best make up their own minds about who is their preference.

(We have, by the way, opposed a few candidates in the past for different reasons. There are just some people who we don't think merit consideration as Democratic presidential candidates, however nice they may be as people. It is a little too early to start that list, pending official declarations of candidacies.)

In any case, we will be offering campaign buttons of various presidential candidates for our readers to wear, if they want to show their support for one or the other. Our offerings won't be comprehensive, but subject to some BuzzFlashian decision making process that is secret even unto us -- which means we don't really have a systematic way of choosing which likely candidates we will put up on the premium page. But obviously, we will look to prioritizing candidates that our readers have indicated an interest in.

Given that this is a democracy -- and that most of our readers are Democrats -- no doubt we will get e-mails praising or decrying the candidate buttons we choose to offer. After all, that's part of being a Democrat, right!

No doubt when the Hillary Clinton button goes up, we will get both hoseannas and cries of being traitors.

Remember, we are not endorsing any candidate whose buttons we sell. We are just offering them to our readers.

It's up to you to decide if you want to wear one, not us.

Al Gore got the presidency stolen from him in 2000 by Antonin Scalia and four other Supreme Court members on his way to the White House. Is 2008 the year to rectify the criminal electoral injustice done to him and democracy?

More candidates to follow in the coming weeks.

But for our second campaign button premium, we turn to the most unusual of politicians -- a man who went through a political epiphany and came out the other side an impassioned spokesman for the bare-knuckled truth.

(We have to disclose that we have been told from a variety of sources in the know that Al and Tipper Gore are big BuzzFlash fans -- and have received personal confirmation to that effect.)
