Time for a 'real' President

History never fails us - it always tells the truth. America says George W. Bush is for sure one of the worst (if not the worst) President in History. Sagging poll numbers, growing disapproval for the war in Iraq and plunging job approval ratings are just a few reasons I made the above declaration. Any American I speak to just swears at his President and vents out his anger and frustration with the administration. When you walk into any random newsstand around the corner or into a Barnes and Nobles at your nearest mall, you are guaranteed to find multiple rows of books that denounce, decry, criticize, beat upon and tear into pieces the Bush Presidency using the harshest terms and thereby paint a sorry and bleak picture of the past seven years. As Jack Cafferty says, it's getting ugly out there and I say things can't get worse.

This is precisely the reason why Americans will not only be carrying out a constitutional duty (when they vote next November) but also will be making a huge attempt to charter a new course and bring their 'real' President to power. A 'real' President, yes that seems to be the buzz word and is the need of the hour to bring the country out of many self-created crisis'. I'm convinced it can't be co-incidence for almost every American I speak to tells me he is ready for and needs a 'real' President now.

I've been trying to decipher this jargon to learn what attributes typically constitutes this 'real' President. And, the following is what I've summarized after many interpretations. The people want a President whose voice can unite them; give them new hope; instill confidence and make them unconditionally pledge their allegiance as he will work to make some substantial progress happen. The President will provide a government that will work for it's people and infuse the energy to transform this down-trodden nation into a country of re-invigorated souls.

In short, the people want a President whose an off-spring of JFK or maybe Reagan (alright, this should make the conservatives reading this post smile). But, are any of the Presidential candidates from either side of the aisle look like they're from the Kennedy/Reagan mould? Well, you never know, only time will tell!

God Bless America!
