Quote:

However, a governor is part of the 'executive' branch



On the State level, not the federal level. And she's hardly the first sitting Governor to run. Remember Clinton (and I voted for him twice.)

Does it really "dupe the people?" I don't think so. I mean, are they running in secret or something? Nor do I recall any major or even minor outcry over the issue.

I suppose there may be a handful of folks to lazy to look up when a politicians term ends, but it seems to me that if they've been "duped," they've done it to themselves.
