do you think we need a common man per say in office? whom better to serve the american people than a common american? would you vote for a man that has had to strugle all his life for president? at least he would know and understand what the general public has to deal with. he would fight harder for health reforms and incomes and family issues. then write in vote for HUBERT JACKSON for PRESIDENT. how do you feel about that idea?

Our current government seems to only protect/represent the top 1 1/2 percent of our population....it will take alot to ever have the "common man" represented.

Our political system does not seem to adhere well to people just trying to do good......with every promise/favor comes someone looking for a vote on something else.

The true politicians in this country are our lobbyists. They make or break political campaigns.

Do you have more to offer about this Hubert Jackson....and if so what about his struggle in life makes him worthy to hold the highest office in the land?

I think the common man will never be appropriately represented in government because more than 1 well meaning person has arrived in congress only to be sucked into the machine. Until there is a general overhaul with the entire elected government and officials do what is best for the country rather than what is best to keep them in power, the "common man" will not be represented.

well yes. the common people of america aren't represented by the elected. would you say that George W. Bush and his actions represent you and me? i wouldn't. Having said that, however, people who understand what the general public needs might not act. He might fight for harder health reforms OR fight for his own benefit OR not fight at all and sit back and relax. Someone who has struggled all his life would love to take a break. Wouldn't you?

Who is Hubert Jackson? Anyways, if anybody can relate to the common people of america, it would be Barack Obama. Only problem is he is not common "racially", so i doubt he'd get elected.

If a person is succesful in life, you say they are not "common." But if he was smart enough to be president, he wouldn't be so "common." If you mean that they came from humble beginnings before they became succesful, then Bill Clinton was certainly "common." Jimmy Carter was "common." Nixon was "common." Reagan was "common."
