POLITICS according to The New York Times:
(used with a sing. verb)
1. The art or science of government or governing, especially the governing of a political entity, such as a nation, and the administration and control of its internal and external affairs.
2. Political science.
"Art or science of governing" Hmm.. It seems (bloody obvious) that the world is running out of good political leaders.
For less than a year, Japan had 2 Prime Ministers who
resigned from office. They were A

Fukuda Yasuo, respectively. What happened to Japan? Well, it's happening everywhere in the world.
Recession is pandemic. I've heard the U.S. of A owes People's Republic of China a big debt. You might want to check the following:

As for overseas policies, Pres. GW Bush is still unable to have his desire to help make a Palestinian State. I'm actually glad he's failing with that. Curse is him who will divide the land of the Jews. That makes the son of a former president fortunate. And I hope U.S. State Secretary Condoleezza Rice will not enter the picture.
I think I should watch out for world leaders now and look for the one who is equipped with charisma, knowledge, wit, wealth and power to rule and please the world. Not that I will join his crowd.
