"The best politicians are the ones that don't want to serve."

Similarly...from Greenspan's latest book (paraphrasing)..

Anybody willing to do what is necessary to become President shouldn't be allowed to run.

Right. My point exactly. The best politicians are the ones who are drafted by the people.

Just a thought, are you going to rename this thread at some point? Even after Bush is no longer in office there well always be talk about his policies and legacy, but Bush will become a less important part of the discussion.

OTOH - Its not like this thread has been all Bush, all the time anyway, its a general political (At least mostly political, its not like that's a requirement to post here) thread. And who really cares what the title is as long as the conversation is interesting.
