Everything seems in bad shape in the United States at this time. I wonder if McCain and BO wonder if they wish they would have not ran for President? I would not want to fiqure out this mess. Thoughts? Think they would like to run, I mean really run to the land of far, far, far, away at this time?

No, anyone with any sense wouldn't have wanted that job in the first place. That's why I'm convinced the most talented and qualified people just don't run for political office.

But I did hear someone jokingly say recently that if anyone demands a recount after this election, it'll probably be the winner.

Much wisdom. Power comes with to much trouble, and headaches.

Well, I disagree. I think they are loving this and it gives them yet another issue to politicize. I do believe the situation makes things easier for BO because it is easy for him to point the finger at GWB and then link that to JM, and enough people are naive enough to let that settle their decision.

I imagine several people have said it but I heard it said by Mike Huckabee on his new Fox TV show.

Huckabee having a show seems like an SNL skit (although he doesn't have much in the way of mannerisms that can be caricatured) but it looks like it has potential.

That's where it was! Good grief, wasn't that just last night?? Seemed in my memory like something I heard a long time ago. Just shows what a jumbled mess my brain is!

Chuck Swindoll asked Chuck Colson what drives a person to become President of the United States.

Colson's answer........"Power".

How much power does a man have when the country is broke. I do think we are on the verge on a major meltdown. I think it will affect the rich more then the poor. The poor are used to no credit and doing what they have to in order to survive but the rich are used to swiping a card and everything handed to them.
I get a bit sad thinking about it since it feels like I just now arrived to the place of unlimited credit cards, walk into a bank and walk out with a loan approval as well as any car dealer with the same deal. We just in the last couple of years reached that point only to have it taken away from us by greedy CEO's who cost this country billions.

I once heard it said that a person who wants to be President should in no way be allowed near the office.

(Wish I could remember who said it.)

A few examples of the power of the presidency even in a broke country:

As president he/she still has the power of appointment of all cabinet positions,control of the biggest and most guns and those who operate them, from the smallest division of the justice dept.,homeland security,CIA to every branch of the military. Power of pardon and the worst of all, executive order.

Probably not the Obamessiah. I think his agenda is right on target - SOCIALISM!
