Ever notice how fast young politicians go gray after taking a top office?
Sure there is stress, but the minions take care of most of the little details. From there the actual trench work is done by the career bureaucrats.
Although I have no illusions about the true job of our elected officials (mouthpieces for those who actually make the decisions) I'd think that it
must come as a shock in some ways to the ego's of these people to realize that they are just doing what they are told, instead of doing the telling
themselves. Imagine, you have just been elected president and in your first official meeting in your new office you are told that you have absolutely
no power. That the purpose of your job is to take the blame for the decisions made by people who were never elected into any position and who probably
don't officially exist anywhere.
Perhaps the entire purpose of high office is to do nothing more then prevent specific facts from ever being exposed. In this light, there are probably
all kinds of secrets that could undermine the entire system if they ever got out.
As posted by others, we will have to wait and see.
The expression
truth is stranger than fiction however may play a role here. For all of our theories and ramblings it may turn out that the
rabbit hole doesn't lead anywhere...it is only a maze for us to get lost in without ever knowing what was really going on.
Douglas Adams in his
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series may have been right all along...
The job of the president is not to wield power, but to draw attention away from those who actually do.

Look at some of the things that happened in the 20th century.
Why did the Nazi's comb the world for occult artifacts? The german people are a very logical and pragmatic people. Of all of us I would think they
would be the least likely to think there was anything tangible to be gained by such actions.
Unless they KNEW that there was actually something to it.
Look at how badly mangled our histoy is: We don't actually know anything about our history prior to (the last) great flood. There have been numerous
discoveries that have been made that do not mesh with history as we the masses know it but these stories disappear quickly.
Why is it that certain artifacts or sites are COMPLETELY ignored.
I can go on but you get the picture. The world we know stems from what we have been taught through governemnt approved classes. From there we all
arrived here because things aren't right. We are the ones who can see the cracks, but the truth may have finally been successfully hidden a thousand
years ago.
The story is flawed, but there is nothing left to hint at what 'IT' actually is that is being hidden.
