Thread Name: BS: Popular Views on Obama
Subject: RE: BS: Popular Views on Obama
"I just don't agree that Jimmy Carter was a good president. He campaigned and was elected as a reformer in the wake of Vietnam and Watergate, and the disaster that was Richard Nixon, who was the reform candidate to "fix" the disaster that was Johnson's foreign policy."


                      So Nixon came in to fix Johnson, and Carter came in to fix Nixon.
                      But, with the exception of Kosovo, Clinton was wildly successful, and Bush came in to destroy what Clinton had done. The path we're on now seems worse than Johnson-Carter-Nixon.

                      So it would make sense to send Clinton back in to fix the damage Bush has done, than to send in an unknown to carry on the destruction.
