"I kind of question the integrity of a politician who lies when it is expedient."
I REALLY question the intelligence of voters who put such an openly bold-faced Liar into the White House as we have right now. He's been caught so many times telling outright LIES that it isn't hardly newsworthy anymore. That any politican has such distain for the voters that helped to put him or her into office by telling lies, not clever ones, or misleading ones -- but BIG, BOLD, outright IN-YOUR-FACE lies and doesn't give a damn if you find out about it or not is the sheerist arrogance. This type is a TRAITOR to the American People. Unfortunaetly, it is also leading the way for new politicians to simply go out there and not give a simple damn about those who voted them into power. Dare we turn the tide?

Problem is, he might do the same thing his buddy is doing. We had a movie star prez before. I wasnt impressed. Thats another reason Im leary of a wrestling prez. Isnt there any decent "normal" ploliticians anymore? Next question you might ask is, what exactly does "decent" mean? I dont know. Maybe going into office with a clear slate and mass positive votes would help. His going in like he did already messed up the stew. Too many cooks in the kitchen, if you get my drift. We need ONE cook, that knows HOW to read the dam recipe.

I suppose people have different definitions of decent
What would be really interesting is having Greenspan as President, but trouble is, I believe he's way too old, and I wonder if he could wear more than one hat.
Ok Aidan Quinn hehe
No, better yet.... Art Bell lol!

Yep..youre right about the definition of "decent". Ah well...youre a decent gal, and you have some gnarly decent stuff I want to bid on, and I have a decent shelf to put them on. So...decent we all shall be, heh.
Art Bell as prez? lol! Hell, lets go with Robert DeNiro then

How about Martin Sheen if you're talking actors. I like the way the Sheen boys handle their problems in the movies.

Al Gore is still the top choice among likely Democratic voters at 27%, with Clinton the clear second choice at 22%. In August 2001, Gore led Clinton 40%-24%.

Jesse Ventura with his WWF pink boa and hotpants! Mucho credibility! Not that I personally disagree with his policies, but the world's perception?

Did you ever notice how quickly the new presidents get old looking after gaining the presidency? Did you notice how the wives become more sophisticated and graceful? One would think the wives would be haggard looking with everyone judging their clothes, manners, political views, personal appearances and charitable work.

Valleygirl, sorry, but Mrs. Dole is a joke just like her husband was.
Alwaysbroke, that is so true, except for mammy Bush. I think they purposely kept her looking like a grandmother.
I know it will never happen, but I wish we would for once have an atheist for president. That would be refreshing.

I like Elizabeth Dole, and her husband, but they are far too old.
I think Art Bell would make a good President. I don't think he's an atheist, but he likes to talk about aliens, ghosts, shadow people and any other supernatural subject that would be refreshing!

Mrs Dole is a dynamic speaker, and has experience running a major corporation (albet one I dislike) She's much younger than her husband.
I would accept Mr. Keyes also.

I read in an online article that Hillary is catching up with Gore in the positive percentages and as a potential nominee by the democratic party. She claimed she wasnt interested in running for prez when she was voted senator. Wonder if she will still say that in 3 years?

hepburn,
For what it's worth, my husband felt that she was running for senator in order to run for prez later.

alwaysbroke, I was thinking the same thing. Its just a stepping stone, so to speak. She stated quite clearly that she wasnt wanting to run for prez, but I think she plans to do just that, especially if the democrats nominate her and she thinks the time is right for a woman prezident. I think the time IS right. Just not sure yet if Hillary is the one. Time will tell.

The real question is, would Bill have to buy a ball gown for the big dance later?

Well, now that we've exhausted dead politicians and handsome actors, I think it's time we considered dead actors. I know for a fact that I'd vote for Elspeth Duxbury before I'd ever consider Hillary Rodham Clinton...
Hiya, NearTheSea!
