I am not making that case. There is a huge difference between a politician and a leader/statesman. I hold out hope for a leader/statesman.
Churchill, Gandhi, Lincoln, these type come by now and then, and these are the people we should be looking for when we elect our leaders. That we have to fill in with many Millard Fillmore's in between times is reality.
It is interesting that the four carved on Rushmore were all elected prior to women's suffrage. Just a coincidence no doubt.
