Those men have no aspirations to be president. At least one of them, if not two have wielded more power and influence than any modern president. And the american people have made clear that they intend to remain focused on such a limited position as the presidency. Since people like to think the presidency matters so much, I always ask, which of the following events would have been different had a different president served during that time:
Patroit Act?
Telecommunications Act?
NAFTA?
CAFTA?
Military Commissions Act?
Iraq War?
Libya?
Obamacare/Romneycare?
What excatly would be different if Gore had won, followed by McCain, followed by Romney? What exactly would be different? Can you name even one thing? Maybe taxes might be higher for the 1%. But that is a drop in the bucket compared to how much they steal so again it means nothing.
But people like Brzezinski and Kissinger? They make a profound difference. But people still refuse to even know the first thing about any of them.
