    You know that’s not true. It’s only a facade. You can only be president of you have billions of corporate bribes lobby money. Tell me an instance where a regular joe working 9 to 5 thought he should contribute to society and then became president.

        Have you read Jimmy Carter’s history? His Wikipedia says he was allowed by his father to befriend his black farmhand’s children and inherited land to grow peanuts after his Navy career. Does that sound like a regular Joe to you? He has received cash donations also.

          While Carter’s family were certainly card carrying members of the Parasite Class, it is notable that of all the presidents since WWI, he would be the one least likely to be effectively convicted of war crimes.
