There hasn't been a President in recent history who has talked over the people's heads. If someone doesn't understand what the President is talking about, it's most likely because he/she doesn't keep up with current affairs, such as Bush's current approval rating, which is around 42%.  | ||

I think this is true. which is really, really bad. politics should not be simplified. it's incredibly complex. | ||

On a tangent: I think one of the books that best ties into what he's doing is the Poisonwood Bible by Kingfisher; there's a heavy number of parallels between the machinations of U.S. government in controlling foreign countries, the enforcement of American culture on others, and a good deal about human nature. My point is basically that everyone needs to band together to make sure Bush doesn't get elected again because anything constructive he has done, anyone could have replicated 100 fold. | ||
