Now that he is moving to return to the race, the Texas billionaire is again posing as a selfless Cincinnatus, standing ready to do the people's bidding. His decision to become a candidate again, he said last week, would come "from the bottom up." He added, "This is not three or four guys in a smoke-filled room deciding...
