Hey, I supported Bush in 2000 because he said we had to end our farm subsidies and he was going to do that!! So, Fred, forgive my cynicism if I don’t believe you have the guts to do what you say.

Right! Fred, I don't believe you'll do what you say because someone else didn't do what they said!

“Right! Fred, I don’t believe you’ll do what you say because someone else didn’t do what they said!”

What I don’t believe is, when the final political calculations are made, and Congressional support is needed for many parts of a President’s agenda, that ANY President will buck the “farm lobby”. In over sixty years, through GOP and Dims in the White House, none have. Fred’s a nice guy. I even like him. I just don’t expect him to put the political capital of his office on the line - if he were POTUS - to end farm subsidies.
