Abuse of power?

Does it really matter?  Can you point to a political leader that has not abused their power in some way? 

Why instead is there not a probe on how and why the political machines are so cavalier and vitriolic? It can't possibly be a good thing for one candidate to accuse the other of being a terrorist - can it? Especially when all four President/VP candidates are elected public officials in some capacity.

Shouldn't these prospective (and actual) leaders desmonstrate some modicum of integrity and respect for each other, the two party system, and the fact that essentially half the nation is supporting each of the pairs of candidates?

When you call one a terrorist, or evil, or whatever, you're basically insulting half of the country (that chose him/her), and you're telling the very people you need to sway so that you can win that they believe in an evil person.  Is that going to make them like you more?

This is the real abuse of power...
