The more we know about our Politicians, the worse they seem to be. Greedy, spiteful and with total disregard for the lives of anyone else, even their own families. Can you redeem their reputation and name a politician you respect? It would be nice if you gave a little detail here, as many of us will not have heard of that person, because good, upright and solid people rarely get any recognition in our press.

yes JFK the youngest Pres we had. Got shot in Dallas in 1963.and killed last real good pres we had. I beleive he got killed casue he just wouldnt cowtow to what Senetors wanted to do If he didnt like it he veto'd it . I beleive we would have a stronger nation now if he hadnt been shot

Well, he certainly had a good reputation, but I don't think there are many current politicians whom we can respect, can you think of any more recent ones than JFK?

Can't remember his name, is he foreign secretary or something, nice older man, white hair on TV a lot at the monment because he's took over a department that got in a mess and has been there about 8 months. I think he's very sensible and I like him. A lot of politicains on TV don't answer questions but he does and it all seems to make sense. He's the only one that ever has as far as I'm concerned. As you can tell I'm not up on these things but he's lovely bless him.

No, as I don't respect any of them. I needed Help and they say they can't do anything? So what are they being paid for, telling lies and sitting pretty doing nothing. Sorry these are my Feelings.
