Oooooo, testy this morning, are we? -g- My assessment of the debate differs from yours, obviously. All I cared about was how "Presidential" the candidates looked and acted, and Bush had it all over Gore. The reason I don't care about the details of their respective proposed plans is that I know that the details are subject to change, because the plans are just proposals. Congress passes budgets and enacts laws. All the President does, domestically, is administer the laws Congress enacts within the budget constraints that Congress adopts. He can also veto laws, of course, but as you know Congress can override his veto. So the candidates' programs don't really mean much at all, do they? Look where Clinton's health care proposals went - down the drain.

As for what any president would do in any crisis, financial or otherwise, the honest answer is consult with his advisors and determine what to do based on the situation. What else is there to say?

In terms of foreign affairs, I thought Bush's answers were superior, and I thought his views about the military were vastly superior.
