Well, apparently I'm a woman, because none of the male stereotypes listed by Sam Bennett (of the Women's Campaign Forum) fit me and all the female stereotypes do. I am not a risk taker. I want to be in government to help, rather than for power. And I never ask a man "What do you do?" when I meet him. (Why would I? What do I care?) I attribute most of these to introversion. I would be a horrible chief executive, but I think I'd be a good legislator. Maybe if we had a proportional party representation system to elect legislatures I could do that. I don't agree with that system, but it would be great for me.

Images of Thom
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
To Thom re the Wikipedia Paul Revere page. I think you should take a look at the wikipedia page, when you mentioned that it had been changed to reflect Sara Palins ignorance, I decided to look at it since I heard that page had be locked because of all the attempts to rewrite it. The interesting thing is, there are several sections marked "the template Q is being considered for deletion". It looks like the Palinista re-write of history isn't going so well for the Palinistas. Perhaps you might want to check on the page once a month or so, just to see what happens.
