Outside of George Washington, there is very little deification of American politicians


It was much funnier when I read that as defecation. Get it? They are all full of it.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Yes, but it has extended a fair deal: North Korea, Cuba, Russia, Venezuela (until cancer did something decent for once), Syria, Iraq, Zimbabwe, etc.




The United States presidential election of 1984 between the incumbent President Ronald Reagan, the Republican candidate, and former Vice President Walter Mondale, the Democratic candidate. Reagan carried 49 of the 50 states. Of course, Richard Nixon also carried 40 of the 50 states in 1972, only to resign two years later.



There certainly is a strong attempt to make president's iconic, but the phrase "cult of personality" is almost always used to describe totalitarian leaders.

Personally, I think such an assassination weapon is near perfect for going after lifetime dictators who become troublesome. Perhaps it has never been possible to get it into N. Korean inner circle,. but I wouldn't be surprised if it's been considered.
I think this guy might be a dead man? http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-05-24/hacker-who-got-inside-hillary-clintons-server-said-cooperate-fully-ongoing-email-inv

I think Erdogan of Turkey is a walking dead man as well. An interesting bet I have considered is trying to find out what it would take to get life insurance on him.

Chavez was a lot more interesting character than Maduro. Currently, India is trading Venezuela medicine, directly for crude oil.

Madurro made a giant mistake when he sold the gold that Chavez had returned from the fed to Goldman Sachs. Now they will have to turn their mineral rights over to Wall street for cash flow.
The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW

Who the heck are you? Why don't you use caps?
You come here and immediately start throwing
stones at long time members? Quit it.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Landslide? It's been 28 years since the winner broke 53% of the popular vote! They will spend billions dollars and a handful of people in a few states will determine the outcome.

Nobody is going to win by a landslide!

2012 Barack Obama 51.1%
2008 Barack Obama 52.9%
2004 George W. Bush 50.7%
2000 George W. Bush 47.9%
1996 Clinton 49.2%
1992 Clinton 43.0%
1988 George H.W. Bush 53.4%
1984 Ronald Reagan 58.8%
1980 Ronald Reagan 50.7%
1976 Jimmy Carter 50.1%
1972 Richard Nixon 60.7%
