No, I wouldn't vote for him for president. No new dynasties, please.

...or to appreciate the good looking ones ...

I don't want to close it yet, its rather entertaining.

I went to search Google for a picture of an ugly chick to post up here. Having raised chickens, I can remember some ugly hatchlings and thought somebody would surely have taken pictures of them.

GOOD GOD!!! Don't do that search.

But if he can do the job, who cares? The only problem is if he cannot do the job.

I would agree if you could demonstrate that he was uniquely able to do the job, but I doubt that is true. On the contrary I believe that history supports my argument that it is a job that many people could do at least adequately. A proportion of them could do the job more than adequately. I would rather take a chance on the modest risk of a total screw-up like Carter than risk the voting public believing that some family may have a genetic propensity to leadership. That is the first step to accepting aristocracy.

No thank you. The history of the planet thus far recommends against that particular governmental form.

Ben Franklin:

I don't consider him an enemy but clearly he doesn't salute the flag with the sort of vigor that you desire.

Pay attention. Might learn something.

So what you are saying is that you would rather take a larger risk supporting someone else than having someone who is better but related to someone else in power just coz? Sounds like you would rather have the better man sit out because you are afraid of having a dynasty. Kinda makes me think of cutting the nose to spite the face.
