No John. I think it's a matter of the majority of "our very own" do not agree with you and that they would rather get behind a nominated candidate than one who merely talks as if he's a candidate. The nominations campaign is over John. We're moving into the election stage. The time to declare your candidacy has past. You will now have to wait two years and five months before you get another chance.
