Politicians need to understand the American people will accept mistakes. After the Bay of Pigs debacle President Kennedy stood up in front of the American people and admitted his decisions were mistakes. He and his staff had thought it through but they still came up with a bad plan. He said this was not to deflect responsibility; he was the responsible person in the government. Like Harry Truman's "the buck stops here." Kennedy's approval went up. The American people will accept mistakes BUT they will not tolerate being lied to.....
Politicians take heed!!!!!
