In 1972, the passive and unassuming Senator from Oklahoma turned populist firebrand, Fred Harris, declined to run for re-election in order to seek the presidency.

having done a lot more reading since this I've come to the conclusion that church was just the most interesting guy ever tbh. mostly fake outside personality while he was internally striving for as much fame as possible. not even power really, just attention...
I haven't posted on here a while but Xitter sucks and actively doesn't work so I might post back here for a while.
