    At least you're considering the positives.
    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

          Good grief! Is Mr Bannon now deemed to be on "the left"?

            Former President Bill Clinton said Tuesday that presidents should be able to run for a third term as long as they take off some time after their second term.

            “I’ve always thought that should be the rule,” he said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “I think as a practical matter, you couldn’t apply this to anyone who has already served, but going forward, I personally believe that should be the rule.”

            Clinton made the remark in the context of a question posed by “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough, who said that many wished that Clinton could run again.

            “Shouldn’t a president be able to take two terms, take time off and run again? Shouldn’t Americans have that choice?” asked Scarborough. He cited former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who led his country during World War II and again in the 1950s, as an example.
            Of course Churchill got a sound kicking by the electorate in 1945 much to his shock and amazement.

              Then that would be Pope, not King.
              A) Announce you are going to be looking for waste, abuse, fraud and corruption.
              2) Wait to see who screams the loudest.
              c) Start there..

                Remember the history of various Popes. The Avignon Papacy comes to mind.

                      So what? The point is that Clinton even mused about allowing a third term.

                        He was not joking about not thinking about it now.

                        “I’m not joking,” Trump told Welker, reiterating, “It is far too early to think about it.”

                          There is only one Pope, but definitely to be in power in America, it helps a lot to be Catholic; the one true faith. The Catholics tolerate you while you continue to help in their political adventure.

                              And there you were only 5 posts ago telling me that you "pay no mind to popes" yet you evidently pay enough "mind" to know there are presenly 4.
