Power , I once read, is a RELATIONSHIP between the people
and a leader. No matter what I think about the Ken Starr inquisition,
there are signs that Clinton is beginning to lose the mystique of
power.
To be greeted by signs like : " Mr. President -Stay Away From Our
Daughters " ! ( Providence Journal, Sept 9, page A 8 )
The most ardent democrat -not lacking in common sense - would NOT
suggest that we be governed by opinion polls.
But who would say that we should tell the Clinton loathers to
just go to hell ?
Should not our democracy - at least in the future - consider
a REFERENDUM on the incumbent President - if a crisis of confidence in
his or HER character develops ?
A presidential referendum may be easier on our political
structure than nasty impeachment proceedings .
I could live with results of an institutionalized referendum.
I myself would still vote APPROVE for William Jefferson Clinton .
But I am use to losing !
