seems like lately what we have for "Leaders" aren't leaders at all.
they build a power base of voters and then constantly try to convince those voters that the "leader" is doing everything the voters wanted them to do.
Clinton, what a disappointment, i actually thought that he would be a leader during the primaries for his first term. even when running for his second term, i thought maybe he could show some leadership. what i found was, he was just a consensus taker.
when will we see real leadership in this country again? i'd vote for someone who had real ideas of his own (even if i disagreed with him) and was willing to push certain agendas consistently and not let the "will" of the people constantly sway him.
if the person that wants to run doesn't have better ideas than the rest of us and must constantly rely on polls of what WE think before he can make a decision, HOW does that qualify him to be a LEADER?
i want REAL leadership even if it is down a path i don't agree with. at least that way i can either change my mind about that path because it was indeed the right one OR i can disagree with that path.
