From what I've seen of him he is very intelligent, I generally agree with his views, he doesn't seem to have have anger, greed, or vanity issues. I'm not sure his temperament would produce good Commander in Chief decisions but overall he seems like a great candidate.

Is that because of who he is or because of his TV personality?

How about we stop encouraging celebrities to hold political office...?

I've only seen a few minutes of him on TV. I can't think of many politicians whose positions I like and who wouldn't bow to corporations.
