Is it possible to be a man today?

[SamMalone]

I can't figure out a way. All of the succesful and powerful people are businessmen or politicians with fake smiles and beliefs changing based on what will get them elected. I don't think you can be a real man today anymore and get anywhere in life, at least in America. Imagine Alexander the Great being alive today....would he be taking over the world via politics, or perhaps be a leader of a percieved "terrorist" group?

Alexander the great would probably be an ultimate fighting star.

In a sense it's easier, because a small amount of courage goes a long way.

It is hard to believe how spineless (or on the other hand, dense and stubborn) politicians tend to be. Only one Senator (Russ Feingold) had the balls to vote against the "Patriot Act," and I'm sure that many did not support it deep down inside.

Yeah seriously.

Politics has been around since the beginning of civilization. It's just how society works, but it has nothing to do with being a man.

Politics and business is a profession, being a man is not. It's character that makes the man.
