mediocracy

1- Rule of and by the mediocre.

2- Any society whose system of government is a mediocracy.
The 41st through 44th presidents of the United States--George Herbert Walker Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Hussein Obama--make up the mediocracy that governed the U.S. for the last part of the 20th and early 21st Centuries.

They sucked!If politicians would stick to the Constitution instead of their political agenda and looting the treasury we wouldnt be where we are now!I dont think they were looking out for "We the people"at all.They pander to the lobby and extremists to get votes.Bush Sr started the assault weapon ban a totally unconstitutional law.Wild Bill passes it so he violated the Constitution.He purjured himself!His saving grace was his novel way of flavoring cigars.Lil Bush and Cheney pandered illegals to get votes just like obamination and passed laws that were unconstitutional.Obamination learned from these past idiots and is trying to surpass their stupidity and is doing a great job as pretender and thief!Its going to take a Libertarian thats fiscally conservative to get things back on track!That or an act of God.

Anybody think that the problem just may be the Constitution? After all its 236 years old and modeled after a government format that has long passed (think Romans) and hardly represents the people its now suppose to govern. Maybe? an update is in order.....hell even the monarchy in England has evolved to stay current to the changes in the ways people now think....or face abolition as dated....

That Constitution is why people from all over the world want to come here!With all the problems we face NONE are originating from the Constitution.Most are from scumbags trying to get around it!Although if you asked some extremists they would wipe their ass with it.The founding fathers knew about tyranny from government and church and fashioned the Constitution accordingly.Its not outdated because idiots keep trying to repeat history and failed socialist models.

I agree 100% with freedive. Also adding that the more I think about our current situation, the more I come to believe that the root cause of our current situation is a slow but constant degradation of moral and ethical values that has occurred over the last 50 years. (There is a lot more to that, but no time now to type it up.) The framers of the constitution had a high expectation that the American people would do the right thing. More and more, we are not.

The ones who want a change in the constitutions are the parasites in our country who look at it like a cash cow and try to figure out how to milk it for whatever they can rather then appreciate what it has done for our country.
For example Obama wanting re-distribution of wealth (which everyone knows will go to the segment of society who have added nothing to our country).
