Head of State

In a world of actual grown-ups, there's no need for a magical "Head of State" person to pretend to feel our collective pain or suffer for our sins or whatever they want to tell us Obama did yesterday. We do not live in a world of actual grown-ups.

I don't think people who clamor to have their social betters stand up and "inspire" them actually understand democracy at all. It would be nice if some day the US would shed these embarrassing Tory tendencies.... give it another two hundred years or so, I guess.
