I think Bush just vetoes anything that he disagrees with, whether it is in our best interest or not.<BR/>Thanks for your visit and your well thought out comment. I appreciate it so much.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501511143186029607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37095756.post-6423533692442574482007-05-18T02:03:00.000-04:002007-05-18T02:03:00.000-04:00A very thought-provoking post.

I think probably the greatest gift the next president could give to the American people would be to put forward a constitutional amendment reducing the powers of the President. In my country of Australia the head of state, the Governor-General, does not participate in the legislative process aside from signing off on legislation passed by the parliament. It is almost unheard of for any legislation to be sent back as it is accepted that the parliament is the elected government, and thus it is the representative of the people. The Governor-General is more of a figurehead, and we have a very stable political system because of it.seaeaglesrulehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05048796180012872990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37095756.post-42285319689560890372007-05-17T19:50:00.000-04:002007-05-17T19:50:00.000-04:00Ev,We will do it as soon as it warms up.
