I'd vote for him

Would rather he didn't but I doubt I will ever vote R for any position above dogcatcher ever again. So if he wins the primary I would end up voting for him.

Is he younger than 77 years old? Then yes.

(77 is 4 years less than the life expectancy in the US)

The sad truth is that none of us, Jon Stewart included, get to choose. The established elite preselects candidates before the people get to pick them, and they would simply not allow Jon Stewart to run.
