Best Political Leader

Mine is Merkel.

Sheesh, is there a "None of the Above" option?!

...who voted for George Bush?

Not me even though I usually vote Republication. I was disillusioned by the way the Republican Party treated Elizabeth Dole back in 1999. Now with the spineless silence on the antiquated immigration laws. I am now an official Independent.

In my older age I have come to realize that your local politician have far more control over you then national ones. So how political savvy kids today can even name their mayor and their national district representatives, all of them?

I believe that it's not so much knowing them as knowing what they're doing.

Of course, most "kids" don't know that either. I firmly believe we're in a steep intellectual decline here in America. The writing is on the wall.

Perhaps I should have phrased the poll as "Who is the least worst political leader out of the above"!

There's a lot of people in my neck of the woods that vote for local (county) politicians exactly on that basis.

That sounds like a Winston Churchill quote "It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.".

All on the list are for the birds. More or less.
