That's true. For example, Bush would never have signed into law government-run health insurance which would cost 1/6th the entire U.S. economy.

Obama addressed our deficiencies in healthcare while every recent Republican administration didn’t bother to. He might not have addressed them in the way conservatives would have liked to be he at least made positive changes to a broken system. Healthcare reform wasn't a part of the conservative platform until Democrats decided to make changes.

Regarding civil rights violations; Eric Holder’s justice department expanded the civil rights division and a specific example would be a look into the Ferguson incident. There are others as well that you’re free to Google…

Prior to Obama marriage equity only existed between heterosexuals…

I'm a republican by registration only and think the dems have ruined this country during Obama's watch. No matter who gets elected in - it's going to be the same old crap - political cronies and special interests will rule the day.

We need a new party. A "no more govt. crap" party, or "follow the fuc$@# law party" or "citizens for fiscal sanity party".

I would honestly rather have Bush back. I can acknowledge some change was needed after 2008, but Obama was not the way to go. Bush seems to be a better person and more personable. He also loves his country and is more classy. Obama is just a whiner and never gets things done. Bush was also more supportive of our military and would have taken down ISIS by now.

yeah presidents have limited power. . .and everything a president can do wrong, Bush has

most of the #@!# they blame on Obama is just because we are so buried under the #@@! of george bush.


Its like asking to have the driver of the titanic back, after you hit the ice burg.
