There are people in this country, in any country, that truly believe their governors and legislators and presidents really do have their immediate family's best interest at heart and their nation's best interest at heart.
There are also people in this country, in any country, that distrust everyone with power, and the more powerful these leaders are, the more corrupt they are perceived to be.
A dyed-in-the-wool Republican will tell you Jimmy Carter was the worst president of the last 50 years, and point to his incompetence as reason for the gas lines and Iran hostage crisis of the 1970s.
A dyed-in-the-wool Democrat will tell you George Bush is the worst president of the last 50 years, and point to his incompetence as reason for 9/11 and for the protracted Iraq conflict.
Both can offer facts to make their points. Both can offer facts to counter the others points.
We need both.
