First off wank, just to correct you on a point or 2.
If the country was run by 1 person it's known as a dictatorship. We (the English) have a monarchy, but the Queen has virtually no power. (Monarchy = has a king/queen. Doesn't necessarily mean they have any political power)
"if the government just sat back instead of tryin to protect agaisnt terrorism wouldnt we be kinda screwed?" I think there's a fine line between protecting against terrorism, and invading countries who had/have nothing to do with terrorism.
"and like someone said, why would the country elect him if he wasnt better than another cantidate?". There's quite some contraversy about the first election when he made it into presidency. And the second election.. well i think he was the lesser of 2 evils. Al Gore didn't seem to be a very straight up kinda guy. lol
"i know it may take alot of work, but if people have so much dedication to stopping war why dont they go to law school and become president?" Presidency is nothing to do with What you know, it's WHO you know that counts. You could be the dumbest bugger in america and still become president because you know the right people (bush for example).
"id like to see this counntry survive a day without being run by some sort of government." That would never ever happen, it'd be like School with no Teachers. The country would run amock while people fought over power until someone took over the country. It may be a nice idea but government-like establishments have existed practically forever and they aren't going to go away, they are needed.. dispite the abuse the system gets from the people in control.
