A very smart friend...

...once pointed out to me that the strength of our system is its constitution and institutions - judicial, legislative, executive and the basis of our underlying economic system. His point was that in the short run politicians frankly have very little if any real impact. In fact, his attitude was one of politicians being little more than overhead with a propensity for grandstanding but little real influence. If any one really doubts this - consider that we have experienced the single greatest sustained period of prosperity under the reign of Mr. C than at any time in our country's history. Does anyone think it really had anything top do with him?

The longer I live and observe the more convinced I become my friend was right.

In its own way it strikes me that if our elected officials and potential candidates are wasting their time in the endless debate over a single child they have less time on their hands to screw up the underlying system that really drives our country's success.
