Re: the best leader

a) best political leader at the moment

Tony Blair, such as he is.

b)worst political leader at the moment

Find something loathsome in sub-Saharan Africa. Hutus and Tutsies are a good start.

c)best politcal idea ever

At Runnymede, in 1215, the Barons of England forced King John to sign the Magna Carta. Next up is the US Declaration of Independence plus Constitution through the Bill of Rights.

d)effects of propaganda in chooising the political leaders i.e would arnie ever got govner if he was not a movie star

Starting with the 19th Amendment the presidency became a popularity contest instead of a logical choice. It was a terrible mistake and it grows exponentially worse (Media) with every election.

e)country with worst run paliment

Depends. South Korea for deportment, Russia for results.

Your spelling is atrocious.

Remarkably insightful list, UA. I am not sure that I agree the US downfall was the 19th amendment, but your list of political highlights and lowlights is pretty good.

Few problems are so complex that they cannot be substantially clarified by one more cup of coffee (or a nice cabernet if it is after 5:00)

Moderator in absentia. Return anticipated. Timing somewhat vague.

Absolutely Bio; Uncle is grounded in logical and detailed understanding. I just wish he could communicate with others on a less condescending level. I have always been impressed with his display of knowledge and his ability to verbalize detail with his intelligent remarks. If your listening Uncle, please take this as a complement even though it is limited to some degree because of your abrasive demeanor.

Re: the best leader

You asked for the country with the worst run parliament, not which country has the worst problems... and if you don't know American history, how do you know what things America has done or the reasons behind them? And, I have no idea what the end of your post is asking there, sorry....

I hope we don't have to get used to this ambiguity. I agree with you niviene, I don't have a clue what he's driving at.
