I prefer Bush over Obama, but the only president (during my lifetime) that I liked was Reagan.

Being a Democrat, I like Obama.  I also liked Bill Clinton.  I guess that Bush did an okay job for a Republican. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :rainbow:

Not really a fan of G.W. Bush because he spent money we don't have like a drunken sailor. Obama is even worse and acts like he is Emperor rather than President. Obama will be seen in history as the most dangerous president the US has ever had. So I guess by comparison I would 'like' Bush over Obama.

History will show him as the first black president and the president that killed Osama bin laden.
All most people know about Lincoln is he "freed" the slaves. History has already given Ronald Reagan credit for ending the cold war, I was alive when it happened and the "facts" that people accept rarely have anything to do with what actually happened when it comes to the history of a presidency.

People liked Lincoln and voted for the friendly, homespun boy that could entertain with his stories. People were impressed with his reasoning and logic during his campaign for president.

I didn't care for any of them. Bush was the funniest in my opinion. Obama is something else...lol. I guess I don't really believe any or them really.

Reagan is my favorite President in my lifetime.  Bush was alright and a whole lot better than the incompetent one we have now.

Yes indeed, Obama managed to turn a financial 'problem' into an economic collapse... but what do you expect from a person that has NO experience or knowledge of anything related to the American economy?

I used to be naive enough to believe that whatever president was in office would take care of his country and its people, so I harbored no ill will against any of them. Now I see that they get where they are because of money and croneyism, etc. and that they are out to look after themselves for the most part.  :o

There are some exceptions but I am really skeptical of them all. I vote because I should and it's my responsibility, but knowing the best candidate is very difficult since almost all politicians lie about everything. How wrong is that? :-\

I would have to say Bush. He wasn't the greatest or the best, but he loved this country and he loved people. He also backed the veterans and still does. He understood what was needed to keep us strong and he didn't get involved in "personal" fights that had nothing to do with governing, which is what a president should do. He understood foreign policy and we had lots of allies and respect in the world except, of course, the Muslim jihadists.

The community organizer is just that. He knew how to organize a community but doesn't know how to lead. He has weakened this country to almost the point of no return with his hesitancy. He has gotten involved in personal fights between two people. He has divided this country by race, political party, age, religion, and income.

He has done the exact opposite of what he campaigned against. Go look at some of his speeches as a Senator and as a campaigner. He has broken laws with his EOs and changing the law...which only Congress can change or repeal laws, not the president. He has blocked testimony from hearings that are being held and blocked subpoenas via EO for Holder, even though Holder is now in contempt of Congress. He acts as if he can do whatever he pleases because he's president.

He is more interested in golfing and vacations than he is in governing this country. He has allowed Harry Reid to dictate and block bills and amendments in the Senate yet complains about the do nothing Congress. He has allowed political correctness to preside in all aspects of this administration to the point where the regulation manuals in the military are  not allowed to call a terrorist a terrorist (ex.: Ft. Hood). Other religions and/or atheists have more say than Christians under his watch.

OK, done venting. I could fill a book on what the president's accomplishments AREN'T.

Sure he did (done more than any other president). He practically destroyed this country with his so-called "leadership skills" (very definitely indecisive leadership skills). He has done everything directly opposite from what he campaigned on and if you don't believe it tantricia44, go watch some of his videos as a Senator. He was against the Patriot Act but EXPANDED it. He signed the NDAA. He has allowed Eric Holder to get away with murder. He has called the IRS and Benghazi phony scandals. Fast and Furious will never hold anyone accountable because Obama has BLOCKED testimony. The whole administration blocks tesimony from witnesses and refuses to submit emails to the investigating committees.

Harry Reid has changed the way Congress does business with Obama's approval. In fact, this government  is no longer the republic that was founded over 200 years ago. The checks and balances are gone because of Reid.

Okay, done venting again. :)

I'm disappointed in Obama, but I certainly don't think the Bushes did anything to help the country and then they left it in a mess. 

Regardless, I certainly wouldn't want the job.  Can you imagine?  OMG what a tough job.  Even if you want to do good the obstacles you face as President are ridiculous.  Congress? Senate?  They both act like it's a game and nanny nanny boo boo about it all.  They don't have the country at heart, it's about their next election and which lobbyist is in their reception area.

There is no more "We the people ..." in our government.  :(

life for this country.

I believe in George bush. Obama lies too much, hes  dwindling our military down, the Benghazi him and hillary Clinton. As for Osama bin ladin  he had nothing to do with that. Our military deserves the credit. Obama was out playing golf
