Hey, we all have a past, and do have some things lying there that we would rather not be reminded of, but if you are in the public eye, things will come up, but I think past is past, a present and future should not be ruled by that past. It does annoy me where a politician who is trying their best to be something for the benefit of others is smeared by their past.For example,such and such a person smoked a joint in college, so what, who in all honesty has'nt at some point in their life. That kind of thing, I would applause the very first person who is in the throes of a smear campaign, to be honest and say they did do something perhaps wrong, but hey, they are only human. What I do like about the US, is how Arnie, an immigrant managed to get to Governor, thus showing the prospects available to who ever who wishes to try.
