"Certainly, he could, but will he?"

Dubya IMHO is FIRST a polititian, SECOND a president, and THIRDLY a Republican - (almost a RINO).

The last Republican to serve in the White House was this man . .

(Unfortunately, the U.S.A. is unable or unwilling to produce another leader such as Ronald Reagan.)

This idea that government was beholden to the people, that it had no other source of power is still the newest, most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves." -- Ronald Reagan's Speech at the 1964 National Convention: A Time for Choosing

I agree, but I note that Reagan implimented/exacerbated the two of the worse policies in the history of the nation; his wife, with his consent, cranked up the war on drugs to current levels and he started the packing of the country will illegal aliens with his amnesty.

I don't know if I can say the nation has had a true conservative in office since Teddy Roosevelt.
