No matter who wins, America will be guided by a Leftist

You know, I have a problem with the title the editors gave; its not just Obama and McCain running for President.

Furthermore, should not an article with this one's prominence be focused on the issues? I am so sick and tired of identity politics.

Did you even read the article you linked to?

It is about handedness. Exclamation

In fact, the presidency has been in the hands of lefties for 22 of the past 34 years, during all but the [Jimmy] Carter and George W. Bush administrations.


Interesting way to view the presidency. Would have thought it was the other way around.

Most of our heavy-weight presidents have been flaming Reds as well.

According to one site:

George Washington
Thomas Jefferson
Martin Van Buren
Andrew Jackson

Another site adds these:
John Quincy Adams
Calvin Coolige

and JFK with reddish.

Obama has been moving rightward ever since his nomination.

While many people think only ambidexrous people can truly experience the effect of the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing, I was thinking more 'hand over fist' in the government till sort of way, but if you want to call that 'even-handed' I won't complain. Very Happy
