I saw him on the Daily Show last night, and he DID include Roy Moore. However, Jon Stewart made that same argument to much applause from his audience.

Does that mean the top of the list does the most damage and the bottom of the list does the least?

In my list of heroes or in the original book?

I'd take Zinn. I guess Nader, but he seems so unorganized since the 1999 election. Kucinich, I haven't paid attention to like I should.

for the record, i was born in West Virginia, and most Americans dont even know its an actual state(Don't you mean Western Virginia), let alone that he is a senator or WV's senator.

and isn't it insulting to put Jimmy Carter and Anna Nicole Smith on the same list?
