...and likely never will. This just adds to his cult of celebrity and sets him up for a phenominal failure. He can never live up to people's high expectations. Like a first round draft pick...he'll be the Brian Bosworth of Presidents.

Well, Rangers, what do you expect from a committee that gave a terrorist (Yassar Arafat) the Peace prize for attempting to bring peace to the MIddle East?

So the prize was for what a man might do and not what he has done. Interesting... Things could be worse, and they probably will be.
