Holy shit!!!!!! :shock:
I guess a guy in oil would say that :roll:
Truth is that Presidents are like coaches. They get too much praise when things go right and too much blame when things go wrong. Presidents have very little control over anything that happens. Congress has little either. Go to K street. That is where policy is made.
I agree, and some of those policies they do set can take 20 years to cycle through. What I mean by history will show, is that the Presidents must often remembered as being "good" are historically related to something in our history. Washington had the new country, Jackson had the War of 1812, Lincoln slavery issue & Civil War, Teddy Roosevelt his personality and national park policies, Franklin D Roosevelt the New Deal & WWII, and Kennedy the Cuban missile crisis. Even Bill Clinton had Monica....okay strike that one Bush' term in office is define by 9/11. The housing crunch, and unemployment would've still happened whether he was there or not. Obamacare, should it survive will take many years to actually determine if it is successful or not. Social Security has had its ups and down.
