“So one may almost say that the theory of universal suffrage assumes that the Average Citizen is an active, instructed, intelligent ruler of his country. The facts contradict this assumption.”

And this is from the man who originally was against the Bush tax cuts. And I can't wait to hear his plan to deal with peak oil and global warming.
Why doesn't he just write checks to all the foreign governments to which we are indebted and be done with it. I heard his speech; people clapped. Disgusting.
People can do themselves a favor this summer and cancel their vacations or vacation close to home. They can use that time to contemplate their future, what they will do in an oil short world instead of engaging in perpetual denial.
And Bush the Greater called the economic plan of Regan "voodoo". (and, as I remember 4 days before the election Reagan said that his plan would not work due to changes....)
