all of you who are hating need to stfu. olivia didnt mean to offend any of you by making this quote, so stop making it such a big deal. she has her opinion, i have my opinion, & you have yours. dont be mean about it though! calling this quote retarded is actually making YOU sound stupid, because you're getting all worked up over a simple QUOTE on a website that more than half the population has never even heard of. its not a big deal, so stop making it one.

Wouldn't that put a lot more stress on them? I think there's a good reason to it, but shouldn't we just have a president who is willing to listen? That'll listen to them, and try to make it better for them?

Yes. YES. YES! Indeed, this is true genius. BUT in fact our current president, Obama, has lost someone (his father) at a young age and did and sold drugs to "fit in" at school. He also smoked and either is trying to quit or has quit...I'm not sure but he did smoke.

says who? I have my opinion and you have yours and I say he is a GREAT president! Hate on me, like I care, but he is an amazing president. Before you judge,you try being the president and being blamed for the country's debt that he didn't cause. Don't judge until you are in the person's shoes.

I'm not hating on you, sorry if it comes off that way. :P but I think he's not a good leader. He hasn't kept most of his promises. And debt he didn't cause? He gave us 6 trillion dollars of debt all by himself..... Lolol

Well, not really. The debt has grown over the last 10 years. I would say that Obama didn't cause it but any president that has served from now to the last 10 years might have contributed to it. Not every president kept all of their promises

That is very true, no one president (that I can think of) has kept all their promises. But, the debt from all the presidents before Obama was $10 trillion. Now,it's $16 trillion. Obama gave us more than half of what all the presidents gave us in only four years. We can't afford him as a president again.

I support your opinion and I don't want to start a fight but I support Obama for all 8 years. Sure, he did cause some debt but I think if we give him a second chance he will pull us out. :D Some of the stuff Romney has said might affect my family in negative ways so I hope Obama wins. Go ahead and root for Romney but I've got Obama's back.

EXACTLY! Yes, you are sooooo right. He did drugs when he was in high school before he realized his true passion. He then realized that politics make him happy, being in charge. (It was all on an educational video we watched at school, look it up if you would like :D)

President George W. Bush was in fact an alcoholic, Laura said “You pick, me or the alcohol.” and he chose her and stopped.
Romney’s wife has suffered breast cancer and a miscarriage.
Real people? Republicans.

Exactly. While this is a nice idea, there's a reason people like this haven't been president. Most of the above have mental issues. Who is going to want someone with that as president?

I agree with some of those, but you also want someone educated and who knows what their doing and who can handle stress and the whole country telling them they suck. And i'm not so sure about the whole prostitute for president...

Yeah, that'd probably be bad... but I was more going for the "prostitute desperate to feed her family" type of thing. For shock value, more or less.

Dude.. are you kidding me?!?! Look at our current president. He did drugs, heck, he even sold them! BUT GUESS WHAT?!? He's stable. He's an amazing president. (Don't deny it;) } Think about it... they could be an ex-cutter or something but they will understand problems that regular people can't understand. They still are stable but they understand more! MORE I TELL YOU! One last thing.... if you did self-harm, don't you think you would want the government to do something to help stop everyone even though it is so addicting? Well, the only person who would understand this would be someone with past experience. She doesn't mean she wants an alcoholic in office right now. She means she wants someone with past experience so they know what its like. It would be dangerous for a president to make decisions while drunk. {BTW, Obama doesn't do drugs anymore, he did it in his teen years. He then learned the meaning of life and stopped :D}

obama isn't an amazing president first off. and isn't a person who cuts a "regular" person? ugh you're all way too overdramatic on here. and just because you aren't an alcoholic anymore doesn't mean you won't be one again. if something depresses you, you could easily start drinking again, or start cutting again.

Yeah, I would love to see you in Obama's shoes, being accused of putting us in debt when he didn't. Overdramatic? Where? Give me proof in my paragraph. If you can't give proof then that is your opinion and not a fact. A debate has to deal with FACTS not OPINIONS.

Well I'm sorry you read it then. And unstable? Perhaps. I don't mean, really, that someone who is actively getting themselves into trouble with any of the above issues would make a good president. But someone who has struggled with one of them and overcome it... well, is it so crazy to think that maybe they compassion they need to make a change? You probably didn't read the whole thing before you insulted it, and that's a shame.

actually, i did read the whole thing. a person like you described is unfit for office, and wouldn't be able to make decisions for our country. an alcoholic would be drunk most of the time so he or she would hardly ever make good decisions. if our president was like this we would fall apart. and just btw, my friends friend's sister is autistic, and she says retarded all the time so whatever lol

Those were the words to make you want to read the rest, for the most part. What I mostly mean is someone who cares about the issues with drugs, alcohol or crime personally may be able to have the kind of compassion they may need to fix one of these issues.

i feel like a lot of these wouldn't be a good representation of our country tbh
why would we want a hooker or a druggie as our president? and would a highschool dropout know how to lead our country? i like the message of the quote though (:
