There would be pros and cons if he ran. His money would enable him to compete with the two major parties and the
discontent out there would provide a lot of potential votes.
The downside is the difficulty of a third party movement
getting ballot access in many states and the built in bias
against deserting the traditional parties. Finally, the media
plays a key role. The media never addresses the issues,
rather they promote a horserace, meaning they always suggest that third parties are spoilers and that voting for them is a wasted vote.

Excellent idea. I think the American people deserve choices. I would also like to see Gore run for the Green Party and Sheehan run for the Peace & Freedom Party and Michael Moore run for the World Worker's Party.
And Barney the Dinosaur can run for the "Progressives."

Maybe then people will finally believe that the presidency can be/and is bought.
