What qualities does President Bush have that you don't want see in the next President?

Shortsightedness, fiscal irresponsibility, absolutism, inability to separate religious morality from federal issues, inability to unify the country, inability to post cabinet members on merit rather than partisan reasons, inability to be a world leader.

This list can go forever.

He is a bit on the incompetent side. While well meaning, he does not have the necessary skills to act in an emergency. What he seems to really lack is leadership ability, the ability to weigh options and proceed with the best option. He thinks too much of how he will be percieved and not enough about what he is getting the nation into.

Subborn pig headedness. The candidates running this time except maybe Rudy Giuliani are reasonably to very competent. Bush is not. While all politicians are liars none can come close to the ability or willingness to lie like Bush. I expect someone to be corrupt but no one expects the amount of corruption that has come out of the Bush Administration.

He says he is a born again Chrisitan yet he does things that cause one to wonder the validity of that claim. Lying and attacking other countries without provocation are not Christian practices.

One who could think would be nice, many times he doesn't seem to even know what he is saying. It's funny though how he makes up his own new words, reminds me of Archie Bunker. He's a puppet and it's so evident, the whole world is laughing at his act. We need to get someone who has credibility and who can restore relations with countries who used to be our allies and not be sucking up to Putin and the President of China. I'm getting really tired of all politicians who claim to be Christians just by saying so, anyone who has to tell people should also be showing them with their actions.

Ignorance and ego. A truly intelligent person realizes what they don't know, and isn't threatened by other intelligent people with differing opinions. Instead, Bush surrounds himself with those that agree with him instead of the best and the brightest.

genuine patriot, no longer a short sighted, self serving bastard like maximum of those men. Honesty, integrity, keen to handle the themes that rely for this u . s . a ., no longer those he has been lobbied for and a back bone to stand up for this u . s . a .. Plus stable judgment. to no longer point out keen to do his paintings, unlike Bush Jr. who happens to take a super type of trip trips whilst there have been themes desiring to be addressed.

Looks like a back bone, it appears that we will elect another president with a wet finger in the air.

his character flaws leadership issues misdirected faith issues the way he eats the way he lies the way he plays with him self all the time and the way he scratches his butt ext

He referred to the Constitution as 'just a g*ddamned piece of paper'. I think that one comment pretty much tells it all.

Vote Ron Paul 2008!

The most glaring quality which a next president shall be devoid of is, WISDOM BY THE HINDSIGHT.
