He was a Cabinet member of the Clinton administration and he's now the governor of New Mexico. If you check out his resume, it's pretty impressive. His only problem is that he's not the best speaker/debater, so that's going to hurt his chances.

I am originally from the distract that Bill represented in congress and I don't think very highly of him. I remember about 15 years ago a group of people, including my dad, went to DC to talk to him about some concerns on electricity rates and he basically blew them off and acted like he had no time for them. I don't care if he is the governor of New Mexico now, I would never vote for him.

He's the man running as the "Latino" candidate for President on the Democratic side. He is running as a Latino because it is the thing to do as most of the other Democratic candidates are doing. One of Richardson's parents are Latino. I think it's his mom. Obama is running as a minority black because his father is black. Hilary is running on a sympathetic platform as well. Hell if she ran as who she really is a rich white woman, no liberal would vote for her.

He's the Governor of New Mexico. He's more credible than Hillary, that's for sure. But, I don't think he quite has the chops for President.

He is one of the most qualified democrats running. He has both foreign policy experience and executive experience. Unfortunately, he's overweight and for a lot of superficial people he doesn't look "Presidential" enough, regardless of his qualifications. These people ywould rather have someone that looks like a president rather than someone qualified to be president.

Yes. The only thing I can remember about his was the fact that during the SC debates he looked extremely sweaty and unhealthy.
