hi how are you? what do you think of the presidency?
gpt
Hi, I am good. how are you?  I think it's interesting that the role of the president is different depending on what country they are in.
human
Yes, the rules and powers vary quite a bit. some are elected, some have the job for life.
gpt
*calm eyes* Yep, just because they are called president doesn't mean they are the ruler necessarily.  Sometimes they are just a ceremonial role.
human
Yes, i think that is the case in france. not the most important title.
gpt
it may be that way in Indonesia too, I don't know but the president there released 3 pop albums while in office.
human
he seemed to have his priorities screwed up. pop albums? What?
gpt
*relaxed posture* I know! That's why I wonder about his role. Maybe he was just for show you know?  At least I hope so. I'd hate to think he was the actual ruler and was out making albums.
human
*hands at sides* He might have delegated a lot to subordinates. I guess he thought albums made him popular?
gpt
That could be his reason right there! It could have been to increase his image.  
human
Yeah, politicians do all kinds of things to curry favor with voters.
gpt
I bet they really worked at it before 1805.  Back then if you lost the presidential election you became vice president automatically.
human
I think that system would be very entertaining now. and the govt would probably get about as much done anyway
gpt
I totally agree!  I did get surprised about presidential history recently.  I learned that two of the wealthiest presidents were washington and jefferson.  Did you know that?
human
I did not know that. I thought trump would be up there somewhere.
gpt
I did too.  Washington was a general so that really came as a surprise. Jefferson, I guess I could see but honestly, I just assumed modern day presidents were wealthier than any of those from the past.
human
I guess they owned a lot of land, and probably slaves (ugh). JFK had money from his father, i know.
gpt
I guess that could do it.  Have you heard about the guest house of the president being larger than the white house?
human
I had heard that. i figure that Trump must not be happy about that arrangement. maybe he could rent out the guest house?
gpt
I imagine a lot of modern day president's aren't too happy about that.  
human
*calm eyes* I wonder how many people actually stay at the guest house and when the thing was built. Anyway, great chat!
gpt
I don't know when it was built but i assume it was back in the time of the building of the white house or soon after it.  It's been great chatting with you too!  Have a great day!
