I mean come on, the public is getting tired of the blame Bush game and in my opinion this will backfire tremendously if he does it again in this campaign.

Another Presidential Campaign all about Bush, I mean come on we're already had 3 campaigns in a row about Bush (the 2 he was elected in and the last one) do we really need a 4th campaign in a row about GWBush?

Well what else is he going to run on? The economy is in the tank, costs are going up exponentially, unemployment way up, future prospects way down, etc.

It amazes me that there is still people out there that are devout Obama followers. This man has literally accomplished nothing as a politician. He wants to take credit for Bin Laden being killed, but the more I think about it, the less I believe he actually made that decision. Obama is just a yes man for his handlers.

He doesn't really have to do much of anything in order to beat a fish like Romney.

Parties put the best they have forward for the most important job in the world. And did the Republican Party put forward. Michelle Bachman, Herman Cain, Rick Perry, New Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich. At one time each of them lead the Republican Race. The Republican Party 's "Best and Brightest."

It has been a long time since either party has run their best for president.

Reagan, H.W. Bush and Clinton were men of great political skill and with real leadership even if I dont agree with many of their policies.

That was 20+ years ago, hence the reason I said it has been a long time.

It was 20 years that they decided to run Clinton. I am a democrat, and I think Obama has done a terrible job. I wish someone would have run against him in the primary that would go back to the foundation of the democratic party of helping the working people.

you can call yourself a democrat, hell you can call yourself a tree stump if you like. But you don't support the ideas and programs the party has supported for eight decades.

Likely true.

Yeah, but it was 20 years ago that the Democratic party nominated him, so what Bundy said was accurate. I do agree though, Clinton was probably the last "leader" we've had. Bush II and Obama are "yes men" trained to do a job.

You might be right, I don't think he was trained at all, he is still trying to do on the job training.

The man has accomplished nothing. His healthcare bill is going to get shot down by the SCOTUS, he didn't close Gitmo like he promised, he has escalated the battle in Afghanistan. The man has not accomplished anything other than getting elected.

Wait until after the election, he'll have more flexibility comrade.

I haven't forgotten that he has had to deal with cleaning up Bush's 8 years of messing everything up. I haven't forgotten because Obama let's us know every chance he gets a microphone in his face to tell us. Not sure what his excuse will be if he gets another 4 years and still accomplishes nothing.

He got the Healthcare Bill passed, if it is declared unconstitutional it sure not the first mistake by the SCOTUS from Dred Scott to Citizens United their mistakes are legion. He played a major role in saving the auto industry, he has the economy headed in the right direction, he saw that closing Gitmo was a mistake and he had the guts to do what was best for American safety over appeasing a bunch of people who will hate America any how, and his escalation in Afghanistan has moved us closer to the possibility of success after the mismanagement of the Bush era.

One of them was "trained" for the job. The other was a community organizer.

Trillions of dollars in new debt, $787 billion in Porkulus Crony Spending, ObamaKare, etc. BHO's accomplished a lot.
