Link. I don't care if he has a pretty face, sounds sincere, produces tons of references....you just never know. And how does one develop a trust? It takes years, and then you might be wrong.
When I see a relatively unknown person on a political stump of any party, I dismiss everything he or she says....everything. You can never be too careful when you hire somebody, elect somebody, or trust somebody as a friend.

Clinton, first time around ....."I'll lower taxes for the middle class". Didn't happen of course. Latest Democrat on the stump......"I'll lower taxes for the middle class". Where'd I hear that? I'll eliminate income taxes on Social Security benefits......sure you will. I'll give free medical care to illegal immigrants.....that I could believe.

Here Bluefront confirms that Clinton didn't take the Constitution and throw it in the toilet.Bluefront wrote:Clinton, first time around ....."I'll lower taxes for the middle class".

Waste of Energy
Go ahead, trust no one. If you want to live your life like a frightened rabbit, go ahead, but...
You won't have the energy left to get anything done, enjoy what you have, or leave a positive impact on this mortal coil.
As Ronald Wilson Reagan once said: "Trust, but verify.".

There is a big difference between being careful.....and being frightened. The sooner you figure it out, the better off you will be.
Can you trust a lawyer, a political figure, a used car salesman......of course not, because lying is what they do for a living.
Verification of trust is the ideal, but difficult/impossible in the short-term.
