Harvard professor Lawrence Lessig ends his presidential run. |
Now the Democrats have three candidates.
Harvard professor Larry Lessig bows out. He wanted to take big money out of these elections. Lessig believes that the junk food media wasn't taking his candidacy seriously.
By him bowing out of the race, it leaves Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Hillary Clinton and Martin O'Malley.
Clinton is leading in most polls. Bernie is catching up. O'Malley is still a blip on the radar.
Lessig is likely going to endorse a Green Party candidate. He, Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee are pretty upset with Democratic National Party leader Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) and co-chair Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI).
The two lawmakers are feuding over the direction of the party.
Lessig believes that the Democrats are totally fucked up. They banned him from the debates. Even though he ranked at 1.3% in the national polls, the DNC says that he's not qualified.
I am guessing that he'll avoid endorsing the candidates. I am certain that he'll throw his chips into the Green Party and their possible candidate Dr. Jill Stein.
