Why are we so obsessed with the idea that the Head of State must be elected? The Pandora's Box this opens up is the very thing Mes Deux Cents and the rest of you are complaining about. It's been a two-family dynasty because they are the most powerful families politically. They have the best connections because they like to kiss lobbyist and corporate ass.<BR/><BR/>Do you think Queen Elizabeth II is beholden to corporations and lobbyists? Nope. Why? Because there is no voting for King/Queen of England.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07325371050680980139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2842906968815125638.post-1979493832555135162008-01-29T08:02:00.000-08:002008-01-29T08:02:00.000-08:00FL,Wow 28 years that's crazy.

Please not another Bush -ever! What I thin...Nooo! Please not another Bush -ever! What I think our country really needs is about 5 or 6 parties so things can really get accomplished instead of all this bi-partisan voting and we get nothing but a bunch of pork barrel spending - $ for the rich, tax breaks for the corporations and corruption in every level of gov't. Let's get an independent party, green party, what-ever party and people who don't usually vote (like myself-because none of them earn my respect) will vote for these genuine parties and maybe we can have some progress in the USA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2842906968815125638.post-41118662532419793232008-01-27T22:53:00.000-08:002008-01-27T22:53:00.000-08:00I was actually thinking about that a lot this week...I was actually thinking about that a lot this weekend. You know, I'd heard people make the point that they just didn't feel comfortable with a 2nd Clinton in the White House following a 2nd Bush. And I agreed, but hadn't thought much about it until I added up the years.<BR/><BR/>If Hillary was to get elected and serve 2 terms that would mean that just two families would be in charge of this country for 28 years. TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS!!! <BR/><BR/>That just really makes me uncomfortable. Not uncomfortable enough to vote for John McCain in November (look in that man's eyes, he's off his rocker), but enough to wonder why more people aren't talking about it.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15861692671737212444noreply@blogger.com
