He is a charismatic speaker

Response to Not that I have any right to get political

but that's all I can see that he has to offer. "Change" is not, in my opinion, enough reason to vote for anyone to have the most powerful position in the world.

What really worries me is the messiah-like status that he has attained, fueled by media hype and aided by his charisma. At one political rally he took out a handkerchief and blew his nose. Everyone applauded. When I heard that, my first thought was that this campaign is an almost perfect parallel of "The Life of Brian." I was waiting for him to drop the handkerchief and everyone start worshipping around it.
