“People get fixated on believing that one man has all this power and everything he wishes will come true. It’s not the case. It takes a combination of congress, the senate, the house, and all those other people you should be very familiar with before voting. If anything the president is highly symbolic in many ways. Just someone for us average Jo’s and Jane’s to focus on.”
Nostr, well said and I agree to a great extent. However, the president of this country has considerable power and that kind of power in the hands of an idiot (e.g. President Bush) can be disastrous.
pbnative, I’m conflicted on the abortion issue, and I don’t choose to turn this into an abortion debate. Having said that, any woman that walks into a doctor’s office and tries to get an abortion in her second trimester or later, with a kicking, fully-formed baby in her belly should be run out of town.
Are there any of you that think Obama would make a good president?
