Eden, who volunteered for the Obama campaign in 2008, says he’s disappointed in the president’s approach to the mounting national debt.

“It’s not hope. It’s not change. It’s solvency. It’s, like, basic math. I mean one of the lines that Daniels said that really attracted me to him … he said, ‘You know, can we just agree it’s not about ideology. It’s about mathematics,’ ” Eden said.

There’s just one problem with the Students for Daniels movement: Daniels has yet to say publicly whether he is running.

“I owe them an answer,” Daniels said in an interview with CNN. “I’ve been more affected and moved, you might say, by their activities than any of the others.”
