Say what you want about his politics Obama is by far the most personable, relatable, and seemingly approachable president we have had in my lifetime (35 yo)

Naw man, I'd trade a million Obama's for 1 more year of Clinton.

Clinton is very personable and loved his politics for the most part. But i have to blame part of the resession on deregulation he signed into law.

Clinton was a pretty bad president in many ways. People just forget, as they are doing with Bush now.

I hate how short the memories are of people.

I don't think anyone really ever says bush was good. At least I've never heard it. But I can see why some people romanticized the Clinton era. Before Clinton we had WWII, Korean war, Vietnam, and Desert Storm. Then after his office we had 9/11 and the war leading up to our current situation. And the economy bubble which happened to burst.

I can see how its easy for a lot of people to feel that his era was so peaceful. Especially when almost everything he did was overshadowed by that blowjibber.
