This is the eighty-third installment of the Salem-News.com original series "Nota Bene by Leonardo" by Salem cartoonist Glen Bledsoe.
(Earth-2D) - What is the saying about power corrupting absolutely? What would any of the candidates do for the power? Bush has created an imperial presidency, one above the law and there are many who drool at the thought of that much untempered power. Will this power be used for good or evil? Will the next president reign in the extend of the power of the president and cap it thus for the future? Will a President Obama stop the war in Iraq, put America on a wise and forward-looking energy plan and restore jobs to America?
