So when is the election? And will the Democratic Party help him run and prepare him for the campaign?

He is probably a honest man but in most cases I still wouldn't want him as my representative. I would prefer a candidate with more knowledge about the worldly matters and a sex scandal above a honest Joe who doesn't seem to know the basics about much of the things he has to do.
Naturally his impression as not to smart could come from a lack of public speaking abilities (which is quite easy to teach somebody) and not a lack of mental capacities but deep down I doubt it.

I'm sorry to say this but most people just aren't smart enough to become successful honest politicians. You have to take into account so much facets of a problem most people just can't see this and only see the simple solution that perhaps works for short time but causes a lot more problems down the road.

Unfortunately most politicians are only doing what get's them reelected instead of looking for what's best for the country and thus defacto not true honest politicians in my book. A true honest politician must not be afraid to make the unpopular decisions although it probably will cost him his reelection. For a politician the good of the country should always come first and his own job second (I know. I'm an idealist).

I don't know his opponent but depending on how I would perceive his honesty it would influence my choice. If I would think his opponent is a little less honest but has a far greater knowledge about what he is talking about then that's where my vote would go. If I think his opponent is a great deal less honest I would vote for this guy.

Even though he may not have the greatest knowledge it would be refreshing to see how he would take on the job. Perhaps he wouldn't accomplish much because of his lack in political skills but hopefully it could at least cause a shock effect.

If he is ex-military, we should know way more about him.

What branch? What did he do in the service? MOS?
Why ex? honorable? dishonorable? medical?
