Running for Prez!
Post #1Do you think that any common citizen can run for president? According to our laws, yeah. But from a political standpoint, do you? If a person studies and knows politics equivalent, possibly more than the officials we have today is there a chance?

Post #11That is how it has always been. How many people do you think could afford to suspend working and travel the country by buckboard or on horse back in the 1700's. Notice that our first six presidents were movers and shakers at the constitutional convention. Them that makes the rules gets the advantage.Nickman wrote:
I don't think one youtube video has made anyone president, yet. Could happen, but money seems to be the key, along with being partizan.
