Let it be recorded that on the 16th at 3:05 ET February mock conservative commentator Stephen Colbert Buddy Roemer, former congressman, governor of Louisiana and bona fide presidential candidate, passed as the sixth most popular "draft candidate" of Americans to choose the non-partisan, above-profit organization that hopes for a presidential candidate, by its online voters selected, on the ballot in all 50 states in the fall. But the rise of Colbert and participation in anemic date in the preparation of a candidate, raise the question of how seriously Americans take to Elect.
With tens of millions of dollars in donations from supporters usually not identified, the organization promises it will ballot access in every state for a cross-partisan ticket to win. But so far, is the "draft candidate" by far the most support Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, a Republican candidate for president, who indicated he has no plan to release the third party route. Paul has a little more than 2,000 supporters, still widely needed behind the 5,000 fans in each of 10 different countries qualify for the Americans Elect competition (although this policy so that the "candidate with a similar level of experience as a former president need only 1,000 supporters in each of 10 different States "). President Obama, who has hardly call his own re-election;, Sen. Bernie Sanders, Independent of Paul is the former Governor of Utah Jon Huntsman, who approved of the race after a fall from GOP former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney followed a socialist from Vermont, New York City Mike Bloomberg, Colbert; Roemer, former governor of New Mexico Gary Johnson, and Colbert's Comedy Central lead-in, Jon Stewart.
Americans elect to continue to draw great interest from the media - most recently a long critical analysis by Harold Meyerson in The American Prospect, about his political orientation and goals. But a 12th February online national day of preparation town hall meeting on his nomination process, which lasted barely half an hour and answered a handful of questions explain attracted fewer than 500 live views. And in a sign that the brass of the Americans should worry about choosing, Jim Cook wrote later in his blog Irregular Times, which has given the next critical test of the AU efforts, that in light of recent developments - or lack thereof - " I think I'll be covering Americans Elect less intense. I'm not so sure that will be the effort effectively. People are not following as much as I thought they would. "
