It's a given that Bush is the most corrupt Pres. but how can we prevent future corruption in the White House?

Question

Let's here your ideas America and the world.

SeRoddy, yes I should have said "since Grant", thanks and keep up the good work.

Answer 1

LOL...never elect a democrat that is easy....btw if Bush was the most corrupt how come there are no charges, no impeachments, and no special prosecutors? Terms we we're all too familiar with during the 8 years of BJ Clinton.

Again....I told you the DNC offices are closed...time to pack up your note book and go home.

Answer 2

History Lesson

Ulysses Grant - also a Republican was the most Corrupt President in our History

GW is again a loser - he is at least 10 down on the list

If you want to end Corruption it is easy

First - eliminate the party system - it polarizes politics

Second - Allow no political contributions or gifts
Allow each candidate to have equal and free space in the media - let the media sell papers and air time - people will watch

Third - Hold people responsible for their actions in office - allow personal law suits

Finally pass an amendment that states - All persons are equal any tax or grant given by the government to any person or corporation MUST be given out equally - regardless of need, Income or any other status

Answer 3

We can start by electing people who take the interests of the people over those of corporations. Welfare for the rich has got to stop. Outsourcing is killing this country. We might also want to bring back checks and balances...

Bush lied us into war. He lied about the levies. He just have a tax cut to the ultra wealthy when we're trillions of dollars in debt. He's done absolutely nothing to address the real problems facing the majority of citizens - the economy and health care. But somehow, Clinton's little escapade is so much worse - you Clinton haters need to get over it already. I'll take a horny president over a greedy, lying dictator any day...

Answer 4

u can't but the thing is u need to vote for a candidate by what they stand for not there popularity that u like him or something..... some once said that all politicians are all the same so there is no hope for it...... what I'd like to say the first guy that answered u Pres Bush has ruined this nation he has run us into the ground made the poor poorer and the rich richer and he needs some sort of reality check

Answer 5

By demanding our politicians are accountable, nailing them when they try to pull something and stop falling for the diversions (such as the immigration "problem" that Bush threw at us).

We need to start looking for candidates now...and I mean WOMEN! The men have nearly destroyed this country with scandal, mismanagement and the like. Time to elect a woman who will do a great job. We are behind many countries who have elected stellar women over the years...when will we learn?

If we don't take this country back, we will surely loose it...with this administration, it has slipped out of our hands.

Answer 6

Step one - pay attention. If we the voters don't monitor what our government is doing, we get what we deserve.

Step two - watch what our elected officials are doing. (This is closely related to, but not the same as, Step One.) By this I mean our particular representatives, senators, governors, state assemblies, etc, not politicians in general. If you don't like what they're doing, make sure they know it. If you do like what they're doing, make sure they know it too. (At one point, I called my congresswoman so often that her staff knew my voice.)

Step three - Get active. Join groups you believe is. If there aren't any, form your own. Write letters to the editor, call in to local talk shows, pester the candidates at election time.

Step four - If all else fails, run yourself. Find the party whose platform fits you best (keep in mind, there will be no perfect fit) and put yourself out there. City council, mayor, state congress, federal congress, school board, dogcatcher - whatever and wherever you feel you can do your best work. Keep in mind that the right got so powerful by building over decades, putting people in at the local level and working their way up - moderates and progressives will have to do the same.

Answer 7

...and you probably believe yourself to be an informed individual. Learn a bit about the world and what corruption really means. Stop being so naive and hitting us with the usual uninformed Bush bashing BS.

Answer 8

Germany's SPIEGEL magazine shocked the world when it ran a cover page headline: COULD GEORGE W. BUSH BE RIGHT?

Here's how the article began:
Germany loves to criticize US President George W. Bush's Middle East policies -- just like Germany loved to criticize former President Ronald Reagan. But Reagan, when he demanded that Gorbachev remove the Berlin Wall, turned out to be right. Could history repeat itself?
----------------------------------------------

Look, I know you hate Bush. But consider for one moment how ironic history is. People thought Reagan was a fool. But it turned out that he was perhaps the only individual on the planet who could have ended the Cold War.

When the Middle East turns into a region of stable democracies, where women have the right to work and vote, will you still hate him?

Answer 9

Hey Don I like you but however the most corrupt politican was Grant, and we all know how that turned out he's on the 50.

Answer 10

And what specifically has bush done that is corrupt? Or are you just making baseless allegations again?

Some of you mindless liberals are unbelievable.

First off, Clintons little sex scandle was nothing compared to what he did in office. Look into all the Cintons investment scams. Look at the people he pardoned his last hours in office:

Bush did not lie to get us into a war. If you say he lied, then you have to say these people lied:

What will it take for you libs to stop spreading lies?
