Mousavi, a popular ex-prime minister and former hard-liner, has tried to define himself as capable of straddling Islamic values and the freedom necessary to liberalize Iran's economy and politics.

The other reformist challenger, Mahdi Karroubi, said he will reverse Ahmadinejad's policies that brought international isolation and harmed Iran's economy. The former parliament speaker has said he wouldn't mind meeting President Barack Obama if it would help Iran's national interest.

Sadly, those who truly do..... are usually done away with.
