It doesn’t matter who is the pretty face in the office, after 51% of the population decided that they feel like they relate to him better. He is just the flavor of the week. Some people will like the flavor some won’t, but you’re still eating at the same place.

The president plays a minor role in th system but it sure makes it easy to blame just one (the most well known) politician for all the countries faults and issues, which were there before the current face and will be there after, doesn’t matter who replaces him.

It’s like blaming a teacher for the amount of homework you have and you think the next teacher will be better. Guess what, you’re still in school, there is still a system setup for the class, and while the homework may change with a new teacher, you will sti have assignments and you will still most likely be bitching about it.

Agreed 95%.

But the pres does have a very influential role, more than I believe you made it out to be. The power to veto and sign bills into effect as well as administer new policy.

Using your same analogy, sure the teacher is confined to the system that is in place, but they are still allowed to make their own classroom rules. Some teachers like to keep it simple and straight, and others like to push the boundaries, such as our current POTUS.
