Very well said. As diminished as Clinton may appear at this point I do believe he is a great political leader and will remain at the helm. How many other people on this planet would also exercise their sexual prowess given his power position? His bedroom judgement may not be great but we Americans don't pay him for that - we pay him for his intelligence, his job performance and political astuteness. The time to get on with the affairs of the world is now. I believe a strong American leadership is necessary to avert a possible repeat of the 1930's and 1940's. With fusion the stakes are now higher.

If the point you are trying to make by comparing Mother Teresa and her chosen path in life to JFK and his...is that religion and leadership don't mix...then at least look a little further back in history to a truly great President and commonly referred to as "Father of this country" even by liberal historians..as he was a great moral and military leader...anyway, George Washington wrote in his farewell address: "Let it simply be asked, Where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths which are the instruments of investigation in courts of justice? And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."....based on that your ideas and opinion are Wrong!
