Alright, this has bothered me for a while. Who leads either political parties? Their highest level guy? So, is that executive or legislative? I know many people think that Bush or Obama lead their respective parties, but I don't see it. The idea that we need "leaders" is beyond me. We are a Republic, after all, we hire the guy to represent us for his term. If he doesn't do his job, we fire him at he end of this term.
This is hard to handle, as we want a scapegoat to blame when everything messes up. But why do we have to follow the leader? Is it just our human weakness? America might be better off if we stopped looking for leaders, and started doing things ourselves. If no one is going to fix social security, you need to start saving! If everyone did this instead of spending everything they make and then demanding a bailout, we wouldn't have an economic mess.
Americans caused the economic meltdown, the invasion of Iraq, and now try to blame it on Bush. Same goes for Obama too, he isn't the problem, he's just our stooge. All elected officials are, and the sooner we realize it, the better.
