There is no way I wouldn't vote for Mr. Innis.  I regard him as one of the
unsung heroes of the civil rights movement.  He certainly has my vote.

I also note with a fine sense of irony that Carl T. Rowan Jr. is also
recommended by the "Winning Team."  His father is the infamous liberal
columnist who shot some silly white kid in the butt who was skinny dipping
in the elder Rowan's DC area home pool in total defiance of the gun ban that
Rowan Sr. praised.  Rowan Jr. is a former FBI agent who gave his father the
.22 revolver.  Carl T. Rowan Sr. is a native Tennessean who lost all my
respect when he took this "do what I say, not what I do" attitude.  CTR Jr.
also has my vote.

To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate
a menace to society.  -- Theodore Roosevelt

Teddy, meet Bill.

In the 7th year of the reign of William the Prevaricator

"When *I* use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful
tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor
less."
    -- "Through the Looking Glass", by Lewis Carroll

"It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' means.
[...] Well, again, it depends on how you define 'alone.'"
