A president's life should NOT be "balanced"
a president should be a fucking workaholic while he's president, and seek balance after you leave office.

1. James K. Polk
was considered to have worked himself to death in the Presidency. He didn't live that long after his term of office, which was consdiered to be one of the most successful, in that he kept every one of his campaign promises, including having only one term in office.

3. I disagree, all lives should be 'balanced"--the part of bush's life that
is not balanced is that he is surrourded by like minded people--in a bubble and is not (or refuses to be) exposed to others views.

4. A balance includes putting pay, privilege, and responsibility on scale.
Not saying, I've worked some today, I'll play some today,

OR, I've worked for America today, time to further my own selfish interests.

Anyone who thinks Bush is balancing is full of shit.
