Clinton vs. Poppy says it all
in case anyone forgot what a REAL president is supposed to be like, Clinton reminded us.

Poppy served as a stand-in for the Chimp, with his tired empty jokes and complete lack of any understanding of the situation at all.

Poppy standing there while Clinton was talking reminded me of Mike Myers standing by befuddled while Kanye West was going off script.

2. Poppy has always been out of touch.. he's still confused about scanners
at the grocery store..

he has no idea wha the common man's life is like..

President Clinton grew up poor and knows EXACTLY what these people are going through.. that's why he was such a compassionate president.

something tells me John Edwards would do as well as Pres. Clinton because of his background..

3. George H. W. Bush is nowhere near as bad as his son. I'll give him that.
But he sure as hell knows nothing about life outside of his box, and loves big parties and being rich. He's an oil man, that's all he is.

But he ain't evil as hell like his son and definitely not like the pure evil of Cheney.

Clinton on the other hand isn't an oil man, not a true one and he understands the poor and needy. I believe he knows there has to be a balance because if we get rid of the poor the rich will never be held accountable.

6. HW has had a taste of adversity
Floating in the Pacific, not knowing whether you're going to be eaten alive by sharks--all the money in the world ain't going to save your ass then.

Dubya needed a similar character builder, but instead was just handed a credit card and a free ticket out of Vietnam.

4. Amazing what the difference between folk's who....
have a functional concept of what it means to be HUMAN, and those who are that in name only. These Bu$Hes have no soul, no compassion, no ability to think in a linear fashion, in effect they are the worst among us. They have no compassion because they live lives of Comfort and Denial, Bill on the other hand, knows suffering first hand...Read his Book, he is a genuine article, can admit a mistake, has a supreme intellect and compassion for his fellow man. He also had the decency to not "go there" with the Idiot G.H.W. Bu$H.
