Scary...no U.S citizen is safe from the grip of the federal government
... a hug of a suffering citizen, a helicopter ride to a town hit by a storm, suspending an election campaign for a days or two (only to pick it up with replenished venom), a hand-shake with a Republican whatever, a false impression of non-partisanship - is it how you get elected* to be the president of the most powerful country in the world?
(Democracy, what a dangerous, harmful waste of time.)
*"... this may be a defining moment for Barack Obama's presidential campaign", a paper commented; but obviously didn't have the intelligence or courage to comment on the system.
