Reasons I wouldn't want to be President
1. Your schedule is set out by someone else
2. You will have to shake hands with people you really won't/don't like
3. Criticized for everything you do
4. You can't just "go do anything" without a major production
5. People are always taking your picture(thus no nose picking)
6. You "inherit" other President's actions and policies and, once taking the Oath of Office, must defend them as US policy
7. There is no such thing as a quiet dinner with your wife
8. You never know if people like you for you or for the office
9. You have to be nice to people like Ted Kennedy and Mary Landrieu(notice, I didn't say senators)
10. There aren't any places to get boudin and cracklins in D.C.
11. People actually want to and plan to try and kill you(that really sucks)
12. You can't drive yourself anywhere
13. People are intimidated by you and thus aren't always honest when giving you their opinion
14. You can't just go fishing with your kids when you want to
15. You can't just go to church
16. You feel responsible for each and every soldier, airman, marine, or sailor that is killed in action
17. Someone is ALWAYS watching you
