Charles Barkley is reported to want to run as a Democrat for the highest office in Alabama.

Beats the two options we've got this year. I like him, despite his flaws.

But, I don't understand this Democrat thing. He's about as politically correct as South Park, and doesn't know anything about liberal politics. He's a rich, bootstrapping black man who works for what he has and believes everyone else should do the same. He's got no home in the Democratic party, at least not on a national level. He'll be welcomed to the Republican party though. Unfortunately, being black and Republican means you're a pariah the rest of your life. So, once again Barkley proves himself a savvy contender. He'll do well in politics.
