The first politician who came to my mind was Richard Nixon (the first president I ever had the chance to vote for, a fact which I had the good fortune to inform him of in person). One of the most brilliant political minds of the 20th century, but an introvert at heart. He’s also comes to mind when I hear the saying “even paranoids have real enemies”.

Really extroverted politicians may not rise as high as driven introverts. At least that's my impression. Politicians who really like people tend to be contented with doing what they can where they are.

It's the ones who feel they have something to prove that keep pushing their way up the system. Or at least they push themselves further up the ladder than someone with similar talents and less push would.

isn’t that something. Nixon was the first one i voted for also.

i think that if we used the same standards that were used against Nixon, clinton and obama should resign immediately. of course, morals are not an issue with the ‘rats, and it wasn’t that Nixon planned watergate, he covered it up.

the cover up of Nixon pales in comparison of the cover-ups of the clintons and obama (and kennedy for that matter).

we didn’t have a press back then and we don’t now.

i think that the internet is about the last hope for mankind. the truth gets out and the statists are having a hard time controlling it.

blessings, bobo
