Very funny and totally unamerican. We have a proud history of mediocrities in our highest offices. It's even been remarked on by outsiders. Please see 'The American Commonwealth' by James Bryce which includes a chapter on 'Why great men aren't elected President.'

Also, once I am able to afford to buy a Congressman, I don't want one who can think for himself. I want one who will vote the way that he is told to protect my interests. That's the American way.
