IMHO... the POTUS is truly a figurehead. I have no problem with the most charismatic '28 candidate running [View all]
Let's face it.
The POTUS is the pitch man, they're the spokesperson.
Flo isn't writing my insurance policy or cutting me a check for my fender bender... everyone loves Flo!!
Anyone can be POTUS with a competent staff, strong Chief of Staff and advisors.
So I'm fine with Clooney or Tom Hanks running in '28
I think Tom Hanks might win 40 States.
The problem with our side... we want to present the best candidate for the job without realizing that 99% of the job is the power of persuasion and communication.
