Without George W Bush, the chances of Obama winning would have been much lower. Even if Hillary had won the Primary in 2008, she wouldn't have been an activist, at least at that time.
I supported Obama, I support every president. When he speaks about America though, or race relations, he rarely has anything positive to say. Completely ironic when the white working class gave him the office...twice...
To this day I blame George W Bush for not preventing 911, every American soldier killed in Iraq and the crash of the financial industry in 2008 before the election. Always thought him a dumb son-of-a-Bush and probably always will. He is indeed the biggest reason Obama won, but to tell the truth, Obama as president didn't turn out bad for me, so I wish him well.
Now, come on. You can't blame anyone for 9/11 except the people who perpetrated it. We all got caught with our pants down. Our law enforcement and intelligence agencies were not set up to put together all of the clues and prevent that attack.
Understand what you are saying, and yes it was a dastardly sneak attack, though not one of a the possibilities we identified in CNGSC during the section on Asymmetric Warfare and Actions Other Than War. If a bunch of dumbassed Captains and Major could see the possibility in the mid 90s, it wasn't out of the scope of probabilities. I hold him to blame because his administration did not catch and prevent it, 9 months into his watch after he accepted the hand off, it set the stage for passage of the Patriot Act and when progress slowed in Afghanistan chasing the perp (which he never did catch) he started his own little ill conceived war in Iraq, finally destabilizing the entire middle east. I link 911 and Iraq war as that is part of how it was packaged and sold, though I didn't buy it and still hold a grudge for all the dead on our soil and overseas.
W was one of our worst presidents. To lie a nation to war, is one of the most evil things a potus can do.
Thing is, O wasn’t any better. He inherited two wars and took it to seven. He mass murdered thousands.
So, every little difference between W and O. They are blood brothers from different mothers.
Now look at Don and Joe. Every similar. The ruling class won’t allow Americans a chance at voting for real change.
I see a lot of clear differences between Donnie and Joe Biden, from upbringing to history of public service, to personal wealth, knowledge of constitutional government, to view point on about every that I can think of, being almost diametrically different. While far from perfect he may possibly mislead, to his advantage, (yes he is a politician) but he will not just stand there lying like a rug and getting his minions to come out and rationalize/justify/agree to the lie. Joe is far more conservative and rightfully holds little core trust for the words and actions of Communists, dictators, and historic enemies. Joe doesn't treat women like whores and doesn't screw anything cute that will hold still whenever he is away from his wife. He will not support a right of white supremacists to act out as white supremacists just to keep the KKK vote, not because he doesn't want every vote he can get, but because it is wrong. He will not push points of view or actions, just to piss people off that he doesn't agree with, like the petty ass we have now. While far from perfect and being open to at least listening to the left wing and right wing loons in the room, he will attempt a more centrist plan in most cases. He will attempt to lead the entire nation, not just playing to the most radical of his supporters. That is my opinion and that is why I will Vote For Joseph R Biden for President Of the United States of America in 2020.
