It makes me sad to see that a man can NOT have a serious and meaningful chance to participate in the US Presidential elections and to become the "leader of the free world" unless he stands in front of the lobby group of a very small Middle Eastern country, kiss their asses, beg and try really hard to say things that THEY like! 

It must do a lot for the American public's sense of pride and patriotism to see this on and before every national election!

How very sad, indeed!
