Steven, I'm not very interested in politicians or president's "personalities" or personal lives.
For a president I'd prefer a quiet, efficiant "manager" who runs the country the way it's supposed to be run.
I don't need to know what kind of sweaters he or she wears or what they do in their off-time.
I just don't need to know that "the president finished himself off in the sink of the oval office bathroom."
I'm not much on "celebrity, I could walk right past movie stars, rockstars etc on the sidewalk and not even know it. That kind of thing just seems childish to me. I see those "fan" magazines at the supermarket checkout and I wonder what type of person would possibly buy something like that.
If you don't know the people in them personally why would you care about what they do?
That just doesn't make any sense to me for some reason.
It's the same with "sports."
What do I care which corporation's "team" beats another corporation's "team?" Unless I have an "edge" and bet money on one of them.
I find it funny to see these drunken fans cheering on "their team" when they don't even own stock in that corporation.
All their "team" does is extract money from them.
They're not "teams" they're corporations.
And no, I wouldn't want the Obamas' living next to me or even near me. You'd be constantly inconvienienced by the secret service and the press!
You'd be on the way home with a load of groceries including ice cream and be held up for a half hour or so for the arrival or departure of "dignitaries! There goes your ice cream!
