 If we apply principles relating to class action suit representativeness to these two, it is debatable they would suffice as litigants but this is where the conversation should begin. Have they suffered the same injury as members of their “group?” Does their candidacy adequately represent the other members of the class that the media wishes to label them? A part of finding the right solution is identifying the problem in the right way. I hope this is a start.

  • I don't understand the premise of this paper at all. The conclusion plainly implies that the rationale of each candidacy hinges on whether each candidate is an appropriate representative of the "victims" of something. Because neither of the candidates would agree that this is a necessary, sufficient, desirable or present element of the campaign, it's not clear for whose benefit a conversation of this sort would be carried on, or what the purpose would be. Are we asking whether to call the campaigns something they don't call themselves? If so, as a disputes about names rather than things it ought not to attract realist attention for a nanosecond. Are we trying to establish why voters should not vote for candidates based not on their judgment of the candidates themselves or their programs but on whether they are not other candidates who would be running with other programs for other purposes? You needed to establish why your question is significant.
