"Seuss said, 'I'm not anti-military, I'm just anti-crazy'..." Tindle tells a wiry-haired man in sandals, who finishes the thought, "...which is awesome."

"And true!" Tindle adds.

"Vote for Seuss," sandals muses to himself, stroking his goatee.

"CAN YOU IMAGINE IF we could elect Dr. Seuss and he got a chance to re-write the Constitution?" a young DNC lady delegate boasting a pink Make Out Not War sticker says, perhaps not realizing the executive branch does not (yet) have the power of absolute constitutional revamping. "We might actually get a chance to start addressing the important issues and it would be full of cool rhymes." A whimsical sentiment, a cute punch line for a journalist's human interest story, yet controversial enough for the young lady to refuse to provide her name. "Can you just say something like, 'Sources say...'?" she asks. "I don't want to get in any trouble over there."

Like when Dr. Seuss rises from the grave and demands a roll call vote? Talk about a tough crowd.
