Maybe. I kinda doubt it.

I remeber Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Regan, Bush 41, Clinton and Bush 43. (I actually *remeber* Eisenhower but I wasn't hooked into politics at that age. )

No, but the liberals have.

"Gathering a consensus"....delightful. Maybe he'd try to "conduct a dialog" or "raise conciousness", too. Clearly not CinC material...and to my shame I was willing to overlook that. Never again.

I seem to recall Gore was on the payroll when the script-writing was going on in the 90's.

Of Carter, Clinton, Gore and Kerry, I wouldn't want to have seen any of that lot at the helm on 9/11. For all his flaws Kennedy might have been able to handle it... he did OK with nukes in Cuba. But it's a highly subjunctive stretch... 2001 is not 1963.


And to get back on topic:
