Clinton never worked in the private sector. How is that any different? Most of the politicians have limited experience outside of academia or government work areas, both of which are heavily protective of job counts.

<< Bush didn't work to earn anything...heck he was bailed out by his father's friends at every corner of his life. AND installed as Pres so he could make them all richer. >>

Bull. There is not one ounce of truth to this statement. It is nothing more than an uninformed emotional rant born out of frustration and hatred.

"Democrats support minimum wage increases"
Do you consider middle class to be minimum wage earners? I don't.

"they started Social Security"
Middle class people probably will pay more into the system than they will get out. Dems totally against giving the middle class an OPTION to put some of this money to work. Don't see how this helps with middle clss spending.

"union strengthening"
Creating friction between management and the workers does not help anybody imo. Just read (ten minutes ago) about a rep in CA that is mandating construction projects go to union companies even though 80% of the companies are non union. Sounds discriminatory to me.

"but do you support the legacy program that gets the children of alumni into schools with lower grades,etc?"
Not familiar with them, but as you describe them, no I don't. If you want to guess my positions think of fairness and logic, not straight party line (although I know of no official repub position supporting this practice).

"The Republicans say they support hard work but look who they appoint Pres"
If you don't like someone or someone has a famous father that doesn't mean they don't work hard. I would GUESS that GWB works harder than the average American and probably harder than you.

"installed as Pres"
Must be a scary world for you if you think defeated ex-presidents and their friends can "install" a president. You are fooling yourself there, and it can't be good for your psychological state. As soon as our leaders are not elected (very close in 2000 presidential race) I will probably bolt the country. The dems almost did it with their whining and laweyering in Florida.
