Most leaders throughout recent history are front men, reading scripts put together by their advisers.

No, the front men are few. Usually those who aspire to Prime Minister, President, or Dictator want more than the perks. They have something to do or accomplish. Junior only want's the biggest group of suck-ups in the world to massage his ego.

Sour Grapes? I don't deny feeling used like an old kleenex to have all of the touchstones of the American Dream repackaged as a slick money and oil grab. I'll leave the "Jolly Good Show" remarks to others who believe that there are a chosen few who should rule the world for the rest of us. It doesn't help that those who should be front and center opposing this charade appear out of their element.

Just because I am angry about the situation it does not negate the validity of what I say.
