Politicians you trust/admire/respect etc

polystyle

Well-known member
Well, he seems smart and talks well, is at least aware and is putting himself out there
while gaining a bit of momentum.
His almost announced run has already shaken up the field.
Is a member of post -civil rights black pols so he doesn't carry the same polarizing baggage as say, Rev. Al Sharpton , Jesse Jackson.
And at the wise age of 45 and one term as senator , he's not a corrupt white fart (or worse).
More raw potential then experience ... as opposed to processed !

Beast of Burden
Obama won't run. He can't. Nice chap. Bu no experience. No nothing. Best thing he can do, run for vice, buy some experience, like Cameron should've done. And I wish him the best of luck (the former, not the latter, obviously).

Political heroes for the 07?

Jalal Talabani

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Others waitng to touch their toes. (Very few.)
 

Guybrush

Dittohead
I was not too impressed with him after hearing this interview with David Remnick. He seemed a bit lightweight (but pleasant, yes) and bereft of grand visions, more the pragmatic, slightly wooden, type. He was not very eloquent either.
