This would be a good poll question: What's the worst thing about Bill Clinton?
a. His womanizing/possible rapes
b. His 'finances' relating to the Clinton Foundation/getting very, very rich on government salary
c. The people that have mysteriously turned up dead

We had one of the greatest economic booms in modern U.S. history on Bill Clinton’s watch.

What the heck did Obama do that can compare with that? Pretty much nothing.

If I could have one of them back, it would be Obama.
Clinton - dubbed by the media as the first black president
Obama - the first black president (half white, half black)

Both used identity politics. The only reason either was president is because of a pandering media who played on people's mental issues.

Clinton a charmer LOL, he reminded me of a sneaky car salesman type. Obama was more interested in Hollywood elitist, knowing that many of the little people saw him as a God, he looked down on them, including African Americans. Between the two, I didn't like either but if I had to choose it would be Clinton. At least he knew how to reach across the isle unlike Obama.

The guy now in office is watching Fox news half the day and doesn't read memos and golfs tons and there is serious debate if he knows how to read and you type this on Obama

Clinton as a politician and in policy decisions, and it isn't even close for me.
Obama was a novelty and had a nicer smile who's family made nice portraits, but he was an empty suit as far as actually getting things done

Completely agree. I'm pretty sure most people here under the age of 35 will pick Obama, along with those who pick solely based on race, but in reality, the obvious choice is Clinton.

Clinton would be the lessor of 2 evils. The words good or better don't belong.
