re: If the Founding Fathers saw who was running the country today
It's hard to see for people who are fixated on Bush, but the government has a lot of problems dealing with "the people" that aren't related to him.
The Congress approval rating is in the toilet. I've been tracking the current immigration mess, among other issues, and it's rapidly becoming clear to both voters on the left and the right that, at least in Washington, the two parties have a lot more in common with each other than they do with the voters who sent them there.
Not that this is new, but at least the pretense was easier to maintain.
I seriously think Federal term limits could become an issue in the future.
