Regardles of whether he's smart or not, he is the front man. There are many other people, advisors and such involed, b/t all those people they are smart. I agree with ladiesman. I feel Bush is being sincere and the right man for the job. I think he nailed it with Gore and Clinton. But think about the other extreme also. I'm glad McCain is not president either. We'd probably be involved in some kind of nuclear war long before now.
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. - Teddy Roosevelt
