I loved my Dad but I thought to myself shouldn't Americans aspire to something greater when electing its leader. I saw it in Ronald Reagan and I saw it in Mitt Romney where both men could conduct politics while maintaining their self. Its defined as unselfishness.

I agree with you, but it won't happen today. We saw how they treated Romney. We have too many greedy/needy voters that will go for the celebrity that will offer them the best show/freebies. I doubt we will see the "nice guy" politician for a long time. Too many selfish people that are afraid of having their gravy train side railed. Right now, we need someone that will embarrass the lazy into working, and motivate the apathetic into participation. Only the thoughtful will vote for a boring candidate over a loud and obnoxious celebrity. There are so many ignorant Americans in our country that want to be entertained, rather than lead into prosperity. Having celebrities at the wheel is like having a driver of a bus that gets out of his seat on a moving vehicle to join the passengers in a drink and song. In Obama's case, he has pulled the bus over to a rest stop to purchase free drinks and food for the passengers instead of putting fuel and maintenance into the vehicle for the long travel ahead.
