Back in the 80s, Neil Kinnock was addressing a conference or a rally or something and he raised his arm while urging the crowd to calm down. One of Fleet Street's finest snapped the "nazi salute" and it pretty much finished him from then on.
I heard, and I hope it is not true because I still think he is good for the party. But, if it ends up being true, and he gets convicted, he shouldn't be treated differently.
I felt just as sick when John Edwards got busted. He was another guy I really liked.
But even without this, as I have said in another thread, I really DONT want Bernie or Hillary running again because of the minority of idiot "all or nothing" morons in both camps, whom unfortunately are still stupidly fighting over it today.
Putting parties aside, there is something to be said about how power can cause someone to get stupid. Not just in politics but in business and sports and acting and music. You see someone rise only to crash because they don't compartmentalize their actions because of their positions.
Life can have a way of putting you in your place even with status.
