Sure I don't like Obama's politics but he's not going to destroy America...I don't like Hillary but she's not going to destroy America...I do like McCain and he's not going to destroy America either. So all this talk about who is going to continue what is just talk...I think all the candidates want to do a lot of things different or better than W.

America has survived lousy Presidents on more than one occasion and this won't be the last time something like this happens.
I think these are very dangerous assumptions to make. The nation might withstand deep divisions, but then again, it might not. I truly believe that if some fundamental changes in the structure - in the very foundation - of government do not occur reasonably soon, then our nation will not survive. Mind you, I'm speaking in the long-term, but I care about that as well.
