Question

Are the presidents of democrazies losing more and more power? They seem only to deal with foreign politics. The banks, congresses and whatever seem to controll the economy and other in-country stuff. Have the presidents anything real to say about??? In some countries yes (like france) but even there the president seems to be "losing" more power. (The president-period has been decresed)
Ok, sure the president is the highest commander of military, but does he even there really controll what happens?
It seems more like party leeders have more to say about.

(I must add that I think the presi-election in US is pathetic, why not join the Ricky-lake show or Oprah Winfrey? The candidates just seem to be dumb dolls representing something in beneath the surface...industry or something)

PS. Please excuse my bad knowlegde of US politics and politics in general. So donīt just flame me!

US citizens donīt know politics? Thats good. Then they are easily affected by "directing- information". And just as well, itīs better that the industrie controlls the country than the people? In economical terms I suppose.
Democrasy, meybe not perfect, but the best today..

How right/wrong am I?

Greetings Folks,

These are interesting times. Americans are becoming socially and politically educated.
This is all very necessary.

On one side, there are the GUN NAZIS, the ABORTION NAZIS, and the JESUS NAZIS. On the other side are the rest of US. The assorted NAZIS are more motivated at this time. They could prevail and steal the election in Florida via the good offices of Little Brother Jeb. If that happens, just watch us get motivated for the next election for Congress in two short years.

Good luck.

The smart thing to do then by your own admission is to shut up and learn something useful like undersea basket weaving!
