Powell has firm convictions, and where did I say I wanted someone blindly driven by ideology?

What I said (using alternate phrasology) is that I believe that a leader should lead, not point to where the political wind blows him.

We are supposed to elect leaders, not followers.

And I'm "supposed" to be really really rich and hang out daily at the Playboy mansion.

In the meantime you get the dudes who happen to be on the ballot.

You want to make the case that allahvasudden they morph into these wise people who should be all determined-like and forge onward with a dogged certainty; leading everyone across the internet bridge of the 21st Century with a thousand points of light shining their direction.

So far? From what I can tell.... The less they think and the more you think, the better.

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.

I said it was just a coincidence, true, but just a coincidence.

The first president elected after suffrage was Warren G Harding.
