This article was kinda of a shock to me. I always knew that the people who ran for president where always wealthy and powerful. But seeing these stats about how much the difference bewtween canidates is shocking. To me it kind of feels that the United States will really never have a "peoples" president. Who ever the president is they always try and show people that they are one of them, and how they know how their lives are. But that really isnt the case at all. I think it would be really interesting if someone who was a "Normal" person could be president. A person that knows how it is to be middle class, or lower. Maybe they would be more fit to make decisions for the United States citizens because they can relate to them better. Beacuase I know George Bush cant relate to many lower or even middle class families.
