It is probably impossible to elect someone who will do the above. The voter pool is so diluted and polluted with 'takers' that a return to the rule of law is no longer possible. Also, I will always have a healthy distrust of people elected to any office. Besides, it's too early to tell who all is going to be running in 2004.

I understand everything you said, and agree with a lot of it, especially your words I selected above. That was the point of my question, it is impossible- yes, impossible, to find someone who will do all of those things. (You didn't name anyone.) Call me negative, but there has to be a give and take. I don't like it either, but that's the way it is. Short of advocating revolution, it will not change. I look back at many of Reagan's policies that I would have disagreed with, however (had I been old enough,) I know that I would not have criticized him for it. (President Reagan could have shut down the Dept. of Education too, just to name one example). I simply feel that I have to look at the BIG picture. George W. Bush is doing an excellent job as president.
