<<At some point in the future, that may revert towards the mean>>

<<The US has recently had some very bad leadership, especially in foreign policy, since 1993. That should change in 2009>>

the root of the issue is the timing of the election cycle and nature of the electoral system, coupled with the types of folks populating the washington wanna-be crowds ... they are, numbering for enough that matters, ill qualified, lacking perspective, while supposedly educated, have no sense, and while religious, have no morals
the usa will do well if it turns over the management to the mormans, getting back to basics, of education, family values, international travel, strong guidance, friendship, thrift and diligence, and speaking multiple languages :0) |
