Franken’s platform is actually similar to Obama’s. Of immediate importance are bringing the troops home, providing universal health care, and a Marshall Plan type approach to solving the energy crisis while creating a new green job economy. He also intends to address Crippling Consumer Credit Practices, agricultural issues (particularly important for Minnesotans), our broken education system and the squeeze on the middle class that has grown exponentially over the last seven years.

Franken is eager to debate, speaks often in public and has a lot of good information on his website.

Does Al Franken have an agenda?

I loose interest in those that feel “Asking the tough questions..” is more important than actually doing something.

Do something first Al, writing a book is not the answer
