to: djane from: truedog 1) You're right. Many times I have reminded people on these threads that we are dealing with opinions only. So far, no one has really proved anything. Some try to document it with media offerings but, they are only opinions also. 2) He doesn't remind people he is the son of the former president because, there is no need. If he did, people of your opinion would jump all over him for name dropping. I feel sure that most half-way intelligent people know who his dad is. 3) He has much more experience inside the loop than Jimmy Carter or Clinton ever thought of having. I would venture to say that almost any governor that runs for president is going to be criticized for lack of experience in foreign affairs. I don't know anything about any advertising moguls handling his race but, they all have some professional to help them along. People, unfortunately, no longer vote for people based on qualifications but go strictly image and charisma. There is no longer a majority of voters who pay any attention to the issues. I know you're going to slam me but, this charisma thing started becoming important after the women got the vote. 4) Time will tell and I am confident your hopes will be satisfied. TD
