You have no clue how our system works as evidenced by your first paragraph. I cant help you if you won't learn.
And as to the rest of your post, thank you for sharing your views on why you do not care for the current President. He will stand or fall on his own merits, or lack of them, in the next election. America has a pretty neat system of government. Every four years, we either keep who we have, or toss them out, based on a lot of variables. If enough people share your view, then he will only serve one term. If more people disagree with your views, then he will server four more years.
We survived Warren G Harding, Harry Truman, Gerald Ford, LBJ, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Regan, and Bill Clinton nicely. We will survive the current administration as well.
Works for me.
Where you got the impression that I am all agog over President Bush confuses me. I have freuently expressed my dismay of the 'tax cuts solve all evils' approach to the economy, and am not sure that the statecraft needed to be in charge of the world's most powerful nation has been seen since George Bush, SR, who I greatly admired, has been seen in the Oval office since. I need not love the resident of the oval office to have a different view than your hatred of, or disgust with, the current President.
As I have said before, in 2000, I was a huge supporter of Senator McCain, and was very disappointed that he failed to win the Republican nomination. I would have voted for Ralph Nader long before VP Gore, for the simple reason that I have been watching VP Gore for quite some time, since the mid 1980's. Bill Bradley might have gotten my vote, but not against Sen McCain.
