My comment to Eschaton ( Getting A Clark Mancrush)

Clark is making the mistake of assuming the people he is speaking to are intelligent and capable of comprehending the detail and nuance of a well-reasoned argument. Some of us are, more than is usually thought, but his words are wholesale and those who break-bulk -- The Media Establishment -- are incapable of packaging his thoughts in a way that preserves his original intent. He shouldn't change because of this like so many do. He must stand and face the winds of Hurricane Soundbyte and I am proud of him for doing so. He should also be chosen as VP (so obvious it hurts).
