Daft post, but then again it's a daft day for 'democracy'

Sen. John Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry, with assets of about $1 billion, would be among the richest families to ever occupy the White House, eclipsing even President Kennedy and well ahead of the other moneyed chief executives over the last century.

It's a sad fact that you CANNOT get on in politics in the US without millions of dollars behind you in one way or another.

None of the British shower could be described as destitute. Remember that most of the high ups are lawyers or bankers* and whoever has heard of a poor one of those?

(*note I've spelled that word with a "b". Could have been something else).

If I could get into the Pit, which I can't, I'd post you a link demonstrating that there's little difference between the policies of the two. Different corporate conglomerates might better themselves with a different figurehead but your average American will still get stiffed.
