A character in a movie said these lines. Wow! Our debate about candidates for President now quotes characters in a film as if the script equals the statements of actual people running for an actual office in an actual world. The lines quoted promote a fictional, imagined idealism. They say nothing about leadership, either in theory or in reality. Get a grip. Hey, Michael Douglas and Mike Fox did not say these lines.

I agree he is attempting to divide old and young. This has been a two party system for a long time..and there are some benefits to that. He seems to lack knowledge of what brought Ronald Reagan to office. It was politics of fear...the public was convinced that Jimmy Carter was weak...due to the hostage taking in Iran. Ronald Reagan always focused on the danger of other countries. Little did we know...he was making an arms deal behind the scene at the time. I too remember him dismantling the health and welfare departments...with talk of welfare queens...and no support to the mental institutions..that led to many homeless being unprotected and without care. Personally...I think Obama is an airhead. The message is...I will inspire you...and you will do the work. I may be an old lady...but I have never seen a law passed that way.

He would never be where he is now if people had not been willing to fight for civil rights, women's rights and against a disastrous war. Were there excesses? Of course. That kind of change could never have come about without wrenching, divisive struggles. Apparently Mr. Obama prefers his change to come with smiles like Ronald Reagan who did what he could to undo the progress of the sixties. As for his implication that if you opposed Vietnam or are against the military, that is patently ridiculous. What Democratic leader opposes all wars? I am sure a lot of his supporters do, though. Why is no one talking about just how divisive Mr. Obama is? He has been trashing older Democrats who fought so hard for his rights. He even called Ted Kennedy "too old". He is trying to pit older and younger Democrats against each other, all the while playing the uniter. Since the media buys his storyline, he is getting a pass, much the way our current "Uniter not a Divider" got in 2000.

Sorry, but no cigar. The Las Vegas Review-Journal is the local clarion of the Nazi Right. The Las Vegas Sun is the liberal paper.

There is a scene in “The American President” when Douglas’ character finally had enough of getting creamed by his protagonist…his line about:

Everybody knows American isn’t easy. America is advanced citizenship. You gotta want it bad, ’cause it’s gonna put up a fight. It’s gonna say, ‘You want free speech? Let’s see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil, who’s standing center stage and advocating, at the top of his lungs, that which you would spend a lifetime opposing at the top of yours. You want to claim this land as the land of the free, then the symbol of your country can’t just be a flag; the symbol also has to be one of its citizens exercising his right to burn that flag in protest.’ Show me that, defend that, celebrate that in your classrooms. Then you can stand up and sing about the land of the free.

and Micheal Fox’s character’s line about leadership:

Lewis: People want leadership, they want it so bad that they will crawl across a desert toward a mirage and when they get there, they are so thirsty that they drink the sand. Andrew: People don’t drink the sand because they’re thirsty Lewis, they drink the sand because they don’t know any better.
