Bloomberg Looking For Non-Partisan Candidate?

Good God, maybe there really is a saint in the woodwork!

If you examine the apparent options, Obama is on the far left. Clinton, is on the middle left claiming to be middle-of-the-road. McCain is on the middle left claiming to be conservative. Huckabee means well, but he's the middle conservative on the way out.

Nowhere in this mess is someone who is just plain standing up and saying, "Damn the political torpedoes ahead, I want to do what's best for the country!"

So, if Bloomberg is willing to put up the money to back someone who isn't owing to political interests or anchored by party agendas.... Will someone please, please stand up? Maybe even Ross Perot will kick in his 401k and Bill Gates will add a few bucks to provide us the "windows" of opportunity!

We need a President who is willing to take the political risks of telling it like it is and challenging Congress to get their act together. We need a leader who is willing to lead and let the chips fall where they may. We need a proactive leader. We need a leader, period and I mean PERIOD!

If it's going to take money to get the job done, I say "Go for it."

The fact is, we pay more for someone to carry a pigskin across the goal line than we pay to carry the burdens of Chief Executive Officer of the United States of America. That, my friends, is probably why we're stuck with four really dumb shits after the job.

And that's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
