I for one would like to see Micheal Moore run for President. The guy openly admits that he makes things up, exaggerates, and bends truth in his documentaries because his obligation is to entertain, not to truth. Yet, even with he himself admitting this, people still like to believe everything he puts in his documetaries and books. This makes him one of the most honest figures out there. While he lies, he admits to it, which makes him pretty honest. I liked honesty. While tons of people believe Moore's lies, it is their own faults because they look over the fact that he is a self proclaimed liar, so in effect they are lying to themselves. I bet if more people would choose to be honest about their lies like Moore is, they would have a better time getting away with their lies. It just goes to show people will believe what they want to just because they want to believe it. Moore would be the perfect canidate, because everyone would loves what he says choose to believe him, and for those of us like myself who choose to believe him when he admits to dishonesty can feel reassured that he is lying. I would rather be lied to by my President and know for sure he is lying than have to question his every word, and try to figure out what to believe and what not to believe. Too bad politicians can't be more like Moore more and say, "Hey, I am full of shit but you love me anyway! Vote for me!!!" (thunderous applause)

Why do you feel so threatened by him.
