I being born in the USA I was taught to respect the President Most Americans I meet seem to Idolize American Presidents. It is a Cult of Personality in my view. The American Presidents/Politicians are Puppets of the Wealthy/The Rich Big Money/Profit Corporations Banks the Media and the Lobbyists. Many Americans that I know think that the President and other past Presidents and other Politicians care about the people and the poor and the homeless are the Politicians Liars ? Also are these Politicians just good Christians or do they have a agenda thank you ?



Whether lobbyists work for a large organization, a private individual, or the general public, their goals and strategies are the same. First and foremost, lobbyists must be adept at the art of persuasion, which is the mainstay of their job. They must figure out how to sway politicians to vote on legislation in a way that favors the interest they represent. This means tailoring appeals to specific individuals as well as to group voting blocs, such as Southerners or pro-choicers. Lobbyists also occasionally lobby one another. When normally opposing groups find a common area of interest and can present a united front they are extremely effective.

Soooooo...... You are saying the president is corrupt and run by other "players"? I THINK I can make that out as your point.

Not exactly a groundbreaking thought there. Kinda like stating that you believe the sky is blue. and it's true!

Other than that, I can tell by your writing skills that you are definitely a product of the USA educational system.

The President does NOT deserve respect by default, it is something he has to earn, just like everyone else.
One can respect the office, without respecting the President that holds that office.

Don't mind him.

You ever think that some people may have dyslexia?

I know I have it. My brain thinks faster than I type.

Doesn't mean they are wrong in what they are trying to say.

Let's not forget that the President is a public servant, like your local town clerk. He just has more responsibility. If anything, the President should respect the office even more than the people who put him there.

It's hard to respect someone after they have lied to you multiple times.

Just saying.
