    Clearly complete arse. If you are going to put forward such a case, it really does help if you don't base it on such an obvious mistake.

    Whos the President?

    Whos the Presidents Daddy?

    How Stalin 'lived' is not relevant. Or perhaps you can tell me when Marx stated that a leader should live as his citizens?

    Or do you dispute that socialists believe in economic equality? Even though Marx advocated a revolution of the proletariat? :)

    What you seem to be unwilling to recognize is that any such "belief" in equality quickly becomes put aside when actual people are in the position to do so.

    Suggest you read back a little. An exception doesn't prove a rule...

    I think Mr Hat gave a "starting point" for each Pres in the last 100 years. Only 5 (of 18) were born into a rich family.

    The Kennedys? The Bush's? Both families are/were heavily involved riuling the country, be it openly or not.

    And there are 3 of the 5. Add the Roosevelts and you get all of the 5.

    Ever bother to actually look at facts?

    Indeed they were. But they haven't been running the country for the last 100 years. From my recollection of history, those two families account for 3 Presidents and I think I included then in the five I mentioned earlier...

    Exceptions do not make the rule...
