The only ones that should be excluded from public office are Clinton and Dean
since he admitted to committing felonies: providing fraudulent medical
"evidence" to his draft board and smoking marijuana which was a felony at the
time.
I think that the right of th epeople to elect an admitted felon to
public office is far more important than your sense of propriety
calling for their disenfranchisement.
Would you argue that no one who admits to having comitted a felony
should be allowed to hold public office?
How about my friend's grandmother who was CONVICTED of a felony for
providing birth control literature to minor?
