>>So, do you honestly think there is an 18 year old savvy enough to be president?

>Sure.

Ahhh, let me guess, you'd be that person wouldn't you? (in another life)

>>(Granted, we just got rid of one who acted like a 12 year old.)

>I could care less how he acted in his own time.

He was on my time. Presidents don't have their "own time" when they are in the oval office. They also shouldn't be allowed to lie when testifying in a court - see $90,000.00 judgement for contempt of court, etc.

>>I listen to older people, even if I don't like them or if I disagree with them, (sometimes even a democrat).

>What makes you think I don't?

Your opinions for one. You listen, but you don't hear.

>>You would do well to study the likes of Madison, Jefferson and company.
>Jefferson sure was a noble character, see above.

Being a human, he had his flaws. That doesn't mitigate the other things he did. Madison, Washington, Adams, Franklin and the rest were exceptional men.
I'm sure Clinton even did something worthwile. There was welfare reform, of course he fought it until he saw he had no choice, then adopted it as his plan when the Republicans had enough votes to over-ride a veto.

Back on point, bide your time and learn from your elders. That isn't to say you don't have a clue, you do, you are just too anxious to get the freedom of emancipation. I've been there and done that. It was "my way or the highway." I'm just trying to save you some grief. Think you'll be wiser in ten years than you are today? Hopefully so, and most of that will be because you have ten years more of life's experiences to draw from. Are you wiser today than when you were 10,12,14, or 16? I'd imagine so. So, it only follows that you'll be wiser as you grow older. The same applies to each of us. I'll be wiser next year than this, hopefully.
