You know, I love Ted. As a celebrity he may be the most passionate supporter of our 2nd Amendment rights and our rights to hunt, that has ever lived. If he's not, it's a short list.

However, while love and understand him, I sometimes wish he would tone down some of the "blood brother", "mystical flight of the arrow", etc., stuff when he speaks in public. I think people that don't know him, probably tune him out as a kook, when he goes off on those tangents. They, especially the younger generations, likely look at him as a 60 year old rocker that did one too many hits of acid in his younger days. And, they will make those assumptions at face value, without researching the truth on his positions.

I guess, sometimes, I just wonder how much more effective he would be if he tried to be more even keeled in his interviews. Personally, I think, with his knowledge, intellect, and passion, he could be a much more effective greater force on the national stage. But, I fear, it's only guys/gals like us that "get" him.

Just my 2 cents.
