But you could say that them were the "good ol days." Being a politician is not easy. It's a job I would not want. Why anyone would want a job like that is beyond me. Our local city council works and does not get paid and all they hear are complaints from citizens who don't know beans about running the city. Its sometimes a thankless job. JB

As opposed to a non career politician?;^] There is a difference. Career politicians have been training for it all of their lives. They have friends in high places grooming them. They are probably related to the Queen of England or some other influential family by blood. Non career politicians run for mayer, loose and then you never hear from them again or else never hold any really important office. I am not following you .... related to the Queen of England ..... what country are you talking about? England? I thought we were talking about American politics?

Of course I have "heard" of them, but I am not old enough have known them in real life or real time. All I (and you) know about them is what history writes about them. You can't always rely on the accuracy of that. JB

Non career politicians run for mayer, loose and then you never hear from them again or else never hold any really important office. I am not following you .... related to the Queen of England ..... what country are you talking about? England? I thought we were talking about American politics? Lineage can be traced... Well just for starters: This country is more of something resembling an American monarchy than most people have given thought to. This refers not only to the fact of a former president having two sons who achieved state governorships but to the genealogy of the Bush family. The background of the Bushes is much more elevated than anyone would realize if they had not seen the Bush pedigree. Not only are they descended from kings and queens, but their wives are also, and they are related to other former U.S. presidents, who are also descended from royalty. George Herbert Walker Bush has three lines that go back to King Edward I of England. He also is descended from King Henry I and King Henry II, both of England, and William I and Robert II, both of Scotland. Bush has common ancestors with 15 American presidents: Washington, Fillmore, Pierce, Lincoln, Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Cleveland, both Roosevelts, Taft, Coolidge, Hoover, Nixon and Ford. Other presidents who have connections to British royalty are George Washington, the two Adamses, Millard Fillmore, Rutherford Hayes, Grover Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt, William Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Calvin Coolidge, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Mrs. Ronald Wilson Reagan is descended from Henry I, king of France, and Henry I, king of England. Mrs. George Herbert Walker Bush is descended from Henry II, king of England, and other notables. There are other royal descents of first ladies but these will serve as examples. George Herbert Walker Bush has kinship with Presidents Nixon, Taft, Hayes, Pierce, Coolidge, Hoover, Franklin Roosevelt, Grant, Ford, Cleveland, Garfield, Washington, Fillmore, Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln, John Quincy Adams, and John Adams Jr. With such lineages as these one wonders how anyone else has a chance at the presidency. http://www.illuminati-news.com/impressive-lineage.htm

nobody cept the elitelol (banking/royal families) Yes. I would have said that but it is such a long and ugly story. And they are not nice people. They might find out where I live.

jeannie gets my vote she can't be any worst than those that are running, might even be better I hate politics. My X-husband once ran for Sheriff of a large county. He had no chance of winning. He asked what I would do if he won, and I told him I would divorce him. (I would have too.) He didn't win. I divorced him anyway. I hate politics. JB
