Every President from Reagan to Clinton pretended to be just an ordinary Joe, until at last we finally actually got someone in the White House who admits he doesn't read much. Perhaps we should set of a lottery of job seekers and randomly appoint them to pilot our planes, and drive our trains and buses. When we take the next plane, we wouldn't want the pilot to think he is better than we are or would we? Maybe football and hokey players should be selected by random selection, not even testing to see if the applicant ever been on ice skates. No we wouldn't want someone with top grades at Harvard to be President, perhaps we can even encourage Bush to cancel future elections so a truly ordinary Joe, instead of a pretender to being ordinary, can remain in the White House forever.

What? Philosopher kings?
Submitted by adb8917 on April 17, 2008 - 1:44am.What? Philosopher kings? Educated PUBLIC servants? That's positively Un-American! The next thing you know we'll be asked to support intellectual curiousity, free scientific inquiry, reading -- for God's sake! Don't you realize how that will cut into profits; how it will threaten family values? This runs counter to the fundamental truths of Intelligent Design. You must be in league with Satan.
On the other hand I always did want to be the goalie for the Mapleleafs...
