    I know so many good people, and I am blessed to have many friends. I admire people who do things that they do not always enjoy doing, but they do them for the sake of others. I guess I admire people who give something of themselves back to our country, or to their families for helping them. God Bless You.

    John McCain! I admire John, because not only did he serve our country, but when he was a Pow in Vietnam, he chose selflessly to remain with his fellow Pow's, rather then being released when he was given the chance to be freed!

    Myself. For the all is a mirror image of the whole.  To look with an eternal eye.  Who you look to you follow. We hold the same knowledge. Admire yourself. Search within. Every one else is a pain on a nerve.  If you let them be.? Lets put it this, way, would you dream of fighting the energy's of Einstein, to see the light.  He was a master of his field. The same as I am.

    president obama. i cannot imagine the pressure that is on this man right now and he continues to hold his composure. he is constantly damned if he does and damned if he doesnt. he is held to scrutiny that no other president in modern times has ever seen.
    every breathe he takes is on twitter and every move he makes is on the six oclock news. he is being held responsible for the woes of the world and trying to undo decisions that werent made under his watch.
    american people have lost the concept of how the government works and dont understand that the congress makes the laws that we live under and by, not the president.
    americans are looking like the biggest bunch of cattle i have ever seen by reading and hearing the sound bytes and slowly being led to slaughter.
    research and educate yourself on what is going on around you.
    race was an issue in the election and has continued to be for president obama.
    i admire him for staying cool under fire from every direction possible in his position. i admire him for being a great husband and father under the watchful eye of tea partiers and the like. i admire him for trying to win over the world for a country that has double talked and stabbed a lot of the world in the back. i admire him for standing up for the little guy when no one else will. i admire him for trying to bring about change that the rest of the government doesnt truly want.
    i admire him for the man that he is and hope he is truly blessed for what he has tried to do for this country

    For me it changes moment by moment or longer , , , right now who I admire most is smcopywrite for stating her mind on a sometimes volatile subject , , ,but again it will change, probably when a favorite song comes on, but for that moment, again, it was smcopywright , , ,

    Thanks all for your feedback. Interesting to see that politics impacts so much on so many. There's so many inspirations in this life- including oneself
