Pezz....I don't have a bit of trouble visulizing a Dem president....if, as our definition of president-worthy is....a statesman. Now, how do we define statesman??? I don't know. When in our lifetime, have we had one???? Hey, that could almost beget a separate topic. Kay B. Hutchison and I are friends from college, and George W. Bush was a neighbor...but, statesmen? Nixon had the chance with China...then really blew it. Eisenhower was a fine general...never a statesman. I simply can't name one or even a wannabe. As to moral leader...perhaps in times past it may not have been necessary....now, with people being shot for parking in the wrong spot and crack babies being born faster than I can spell Philadelphia...we have to make changes. Just to see the way some on this thread have behaved is saddening. Sometimes I wish I were King!!! Boy, the changes I would make. Including no more catsup and mustard in those hideous little packages.....

Perhaps in order to accomplish anything worthwhile within our system we need part politician all statesman.<What are we to do???>Indeed Perhaps you would be willing to start by "kissing it", as Clinton invited Paula Jones to do while he displayed his manhood for his underling's inspection. An action that, even if he did do that and say that, was "not outrageous" according to Judge Susan W-W. Indeed, perhaps Judge Susan thought it was a lost opportunity that Paula squandered, when she could have used such happy circumstance to suck up (so to speak) to "the Man".
