We don't elect non average folks to POTUS. Some may say, "What about President Bush?" Well, even he wasn't average.
He got an undergrad degree from Yale, got a Master's degree from Harvard (and yes, he was a legacy, but once you're there in both of those schools, they don't just hand out diplomas, a diploma mill is NOT an Ivy League school that's for sure). He came from a very rich and powerful family. GW Bush was and is a very elite member of American society.

GW Bush net worth is $26 million.
Rick Santorum net worth is $80 million.
Newt Gingrich net worth is $20 million.
Ron Paul net worth is 4.9 million.
Mitt Romney net worth is $250 million.
OK Rush tell us why they aren't average.....
Exaggerate the obvious while hinting at the sinister.
Romney has not played as many rounds of golf as the president, therefore, he's more decent. I mean, as far as we know. There aren't a bunch of lunatics on the radio screaming every time Mitt golfs.
And Mitt Romney hasn't been living like a king off of other peoples' money ? I must be thinking of a different Mitt Romney.
We WANT our PResident and First Family to be better. POTUS is leader of the free world. Shouldn't he live like it?
Yes, yes he should.
Besides, Rush is addressing an audience that, in their wildest dreams, aspires to be average. One of his biggest fans who posts here is constantly bragging to everybody about how average ( I believe he uses the word "normal") he is.
**OK, yes, I'm trying to bait donutluvver. This one is custom-made for him.
And I wasn't even getting into all of his other problems, just the trickle-down VooDoo economics hoax. It was a bad theory 30 years ago, but I could understand some people falling for it.
It's a proven disaster now, there's no excuse. Anybody promoting supply side is a moran or a liar.
This alone would disqualify him from running for the office of President under the republican party banner this election cycle.
I wonder, do the chowderheads who keep saying they LOVE Reagan actually know what he did? Because honestly, Reagan was kind of left of Obama.
They love the man who was never there. And the reason they end up disliking all their candidates and Presidents is because they don't live up to the Reagan myth, any more than Reagan could.
Ronnie was an actor and an empty suit, he was able to pull off that amiable, simple grandpa act enough to get some Democratic votes, and he played it while he was in office, but somehow his ghost has been transformed into a great leader and thinker, a man of courage and principles.
If you blindfolded the typical teabagger today and put them in a room with 1980 Real Life Reagan, they'd be screaming " get me out of this room and away from this dirty hippie!!"
Sideshow Bob: "I think Councilman Les Wynan should do more thinking and LES WYNAN!" (burst of applause."
Lisa Simpson: "There's no Councilman Les Wynan."
Bart Simpson: "Great line, though!"
That bit is a perfect send-up of typical right wing humor, bravely taking a shot at something that's completely imaginary.
N-O-T-H-I-N-G!
Mitt's own church has done far far worse, and look at Gingrich (Catholic) and Santorum (also Catholic), a few skeletons in THOSE closets eh boys? Not to mention, supporting Hitler and stuff like that.
I, on the other hand, think Romneybot's religion is loopy, and I question the judgement of any adult who believes such nonsense. But, that's just me.
Shouldn't that read "a few boys in THOSE closets, eh skeletons?"
Now we've got Newt throwing out every dog whistle available to pander to the racists to try and gain a few votes on Mitt. Newt and Rush truly know their audience, sadly....
Rush the reprehensible racist is beyond redemption.
I would blame the SOPA blackouts, but that's been rather nonexistent, surprisingly enough.
They actually, in comparison to Mr. Limbaugh DO seem like decent people. Seem to have a good marriage. Have fun with their kids. Are nice to others. You know, good Christian concepts and all.
I'm not sure where Rush gets this feeling or information that Mr. and Mrs. Obama aren't decent people.
Someone has calculated how much Mittens Romneybot makes per speech, and, as it turns out, he and Blimpy are paid about the same amount per hour of bloviating.
That's $50,000, by the way. Per hour. Average Americans, those two.

>^o.-^<
For the kids especially. The job could be easier if the GOP would stop trying to "bring freedom" and bad choices to the schools cafeterias.
Shall we start with "open marriage" Newt? or we could start with . .
Santorum's wife living with an OB/GYN for 5 years before wedded bliss with Rick. This 91 year old man is alive and well today, admits to living with Karen Santorum and thus far, has NOT been denied by Santorum's people . .
Let's start talkin' . .
