(and no, I can't understand how anybody can get wild and cheer and shout
only because of seeing an elected [read: doing my job] politician; and
this
has nothing to do with Bush.)

It's an odd thing, I'll agree. In America, the President is supposed to be
"just another guy" -- but in reality, he's our King, our Leader, and, in
truth, the most powerful man in the world.

When he's around, the trappings and evidence of power are everywhere -- and
the thrill is quite palpable.

I guess there's just something about seeing a guy with the responsibility of
the world upon his shoulders that gives one pause.
