(47 posts)I should have put "severely left socialist views" in quotations in my original comment.
I agree that Obama had been the best president of all times.
I was trying to explain how the media and republicans made Obama out to be during the first election, well they're still trying to make him out to be an evil commie Mormon who was not born in the U.S..
The republican party really worked over time dragging Obama's name through the mud.
During that time I spoke to fellow democrats about Obama and they where actually questioning all that crap the right was spewing on Fox.
When I say I "give credit to Bush" for Obama's first win I in know way meant that Obama wasnt qualified.
I meant that a very large portion of our country is still very racists and many are too scared to vote for a black man or a woman unless they practically had to.
Bush screwed our country up so severely that finally our country was ready for change no matter what that change looked like.
And you are absolutely correct that Obama didn't need Bush to win his second term because he more than proved himself during his first term!
I feel the same way about Hillary Clinton for president, I'd love to see it soon but I fear that our country once again has to be near complete ruins for that many minorities to get out there and vote again.
It is our party's biggest sin, so many refuse to get out there and vote!
So forgive me for offending any one here, I guess my post just didn't come across the way I had it in my head.
But in short, my point is still the same. President Obama and his accomplishments have a lot to do with this election.
