Obama Worst Ever?

[rjwjr]

I'm no Presidential historian, but in terms of performance versus historic opportunity, Obama has got to be the worst performing President ever.

The economy, unemployment, regulatory overhaul, war/conflict management, reducing inequality, the Fed, oligarchs, "change". So many opportunities, so little accomplishment. Failure to act, failure to solve, failure to keep promises.

On top of all this, he is the first black President. Talk about your blown historic opportunities! I hope the first female President has a better handle on her historic opportunity.

So many opportunities for a legacy, so much disappointment.

I think Obama would be a one-termer but for the ass clowns that the Republicans have running.

This is the US of effing A. Can't we get a quality Presidential candidate?

Truman, Reagan, and Eisenhower are the only good ones in my 64 years. The rest have put us into a real mess.

George W Bush is my candidate for worst president of the 20th century. Invaded a foreign country, spent a trillion dollars on a war that gained the U.S. nothing, not even the indirect control of Iraqi oil fields, which was the hidden goal. And presided over the biggest financial and housing bubble and bust of the 20th century, that has cost another few trillion to clean up.

George H. W. Bush, the father, had common sense and was far more moderate in all things. It's a shame we were stuck with the son from 2000-2008. I think the father was a far better president and he only got one term.

I suggest reading "Voltaire's Bastards'" so that you are aware of the way the political process works...All who reach the upper level positions have been thoroughly vetted and proofed, else they would not be there. You get who the elites want, whether they bastardize the english language, or come from Chicago.
