Umm, if you did a 360, you'd turn all the way around and be back where you started!

Man, how do people not know that?

And yeah, I could run this country better...I wouldn't be tied down to either the DNC or the RNC, but rather the American People and what's best for them.

I don't remember him saying that. Weird.

Still far more political experience than me. Technically though, the Constitution gives newbies a chance to be President.

My 10 year old nephew could do a better job. He understands:

Punishing success and rewarding failure does not breed nor encourage success.

If you lie to folks, they will stop believing or listening to what you have to say.

Unfortunately, it IS just that easy. Not sure why the left doesn't get this. And why they continue to be OK with being lied to.

Foreign policy, working with Foreign governments, understanding other systems of
governing, understanding other cultures enough to do business with them, dealing
with fanatics...

hmmmm... working with lobbyists, working with Fed and Treasury, attending G-20 meetings
being uptodate with the latest bill being push by this or that lobby group through senators etc

let's see... Dealing with China, with Private Equity firms and public corporations...

I would need maybe 7 more years to even think I could be an aide and do a good job!

This response proves that you're only concerned with bashing Bush, as most libs are, and not concerned with the good of our country.
