From a Jack Shafer column on politico.com headlined “Let the Cranks Run”:

Anybody can run for president (as long as they’re a natural-born citizen and have reached the age of 35), and at the rate we’re going this year, everybody will.

Currently driving their campaigns down the fairway are Donald Trump and Nikki Haley, with Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence and Joe Biden (if he awakes from his elder-time nap) expected to tee up. These swingers are sure to make the leaderboard, something you can’t say for the pack of candidates who already seem consigned to playing in the rough.
