We need a simple educated President.

  1. Truman got us into Korea which was a stupid move.

    We have had 50k soldiers stationed in SK since 1954. Almost 60 years. Screw Truman.

  2. He was acquitted in the senate so that charge is hollow. Don't worry republicans to this day boast of the only president to resign (in disgrace I might add).

    Everbody knows the impeachments of Clinton and Johnson were politically motivated.

  3. People now vote for someone they could "hang" with.

    We will never get a simple and educated president until we get simple and educated voters.

    The voters are dumb as turds, so why is it that people don't blame the voters?

    It is always "the government" or "the president" or something like that. It is always "blame the media" or some other such nonsense.

    People on the whole have fully abdicated their own personal responsibility for the process of governance and education about what is going on in politics to someone other than themselves. They don't read, they watch TV and get soundbites. They make the election process of the presidency like a season of American Idol...

    The nitwit right wingers don't talk about what shitty candidates McMeany and Apewoman were.

    Why don't they take responsibility for putting up an intelligent, educated nominee?

    Because an intelligent educated nominee doesn't appeal to the Fox News audience.

    So we get fake tough guys like Reagan and Bush, men who never really had to forge a winning personality. Reagan was an actor...that was his training? Bush a spoiled rich kid who was a cheerleader?

    Nothing in America will change until the people start taking responsibility for their poor choices of leaders...
