"Elitist" candidates

[NY25]

In follow-up to the Presidential discussion we had the other day, here is a great article from CNN today regarding the "elitist" label being thrown about presently.

I saw this article and found it interesting. Someone who is in a position to run for president is by definition part of an "elite". Some reach this point through birth (W.) and some through their own hard work (Obama). Thanks for sharing this!

AWESOME - Love it! I love John Stewart - he's very good at boiling things down to the most real level - on both sides of the aisle!
We've definitely had enough of C-students we'd like to have a beer with, that's for sure.
