I'm Ready

Michele Bachmann is someone I generally like. During an interview the other day she said that she didn't think America was ready for a female President in 2016. Maybe. Any time a Margaret Thatcher comes along, though, I'm ready. Ditto on the male side for another Ronald Reagan or Winston Churchill. The problem today is that so many of the politicians contending to lead the country are little people with eyes glued to the latest focus group results rather than having a deeply felt set of enduring values on which they firmly stand and are able to articulate. Another Thatcher - roger that.
