Since you don't like Obama, maybe you should trying living in Mexico. Bill Clinton had this country debt free, but Bush put us in so much debt, that we are heading for a long recession. Obama is not a magician and what Bush did was deplorable.

@ABQ1952NM: Let me explain a few facts for you. Bill left office 16 years ago the world and the country changes. Each president reaps the rewards of his predecessors. Bill came to office following Reagan who set the country on solid ground. You might remember him. He ended the extremely costly Cold War. However Clinton wasn't very smart he decided that every one should be entitled to own a home regardless of employment or credit history. That little bit of nonsense led to the crash of 2008. The one Obama inherited and it cost the nations billions. Of course Clinton also entered into all kinds of 'free trade' deals that again cost the country billions and again the true cost of such policies happen later. Well now is later. Then the US voted status quo in GWB and he was almost as bad as Clinton. Then came Obama. He wouldn't even present a budget until someone took him by the hand and showed him how. He set the middle east on fire and restarted the cold war with Russia. He lost Iran, North Korea and China. The country itself has not grown economically in 8 years and he introduced what Bill Clinton called the crazy Obamacare which has reduced the access and increased the cost of medical services. Obama has been the worst president and even I, A CANADUAN, living in CANADA can see the disaster he has been. What's more should you silly Americans vote for Hillary she will be the worst president in the history of the US. It time to put away brand loyalty and look at the very real possibility of a hot war with Russia in the Middle East following the election of the clueless Hillary Clinton. Look at her record not her titles and you will immediately see what I am talking about.

@hippyjoe1955: Democrats are for the people and Republicans are for corporations and the rich. That's why the rich don't pay taxes. End of story. I don't look at her titties...that was uncalled for. That's the mentality of Trump. And you think that Trump's bankruptcies are ok. He fucked A LOT of people and you think that is ok.

You again are showing your ignorance. Hillary is a bought corporate stooge. The democrats have been the corporate party since forever. They are also the party of the KKK but you wouldn't know that if you simply read the MSM who once again are corporate democrat operatives. The democrats always have more money for their campaigns. Want to know why? Because they rely on their corporate donors. Look at all the big money and check out their party affiliation. They are by a very wide margin democrats. What I find funny is you spouting the identity politics of the democrats who very shrewdly divide the country into voting blocks and then tell each block what they want to hear as they completely ignore those voting blocks and advance their elitist agenda. In truth the democrats are the most corrupt political party in the western world bar none.

@hippyjoe1955: don't quote history as your argument without understanding it. Yes, the KKK originated as democrats. However, Democrats of the early 19th century were conservatives, they were the equivalent of modern republicans. Party lines have swapped throughout history, Abe Lincoln would be a democrat today. Trump would have made a perfect democrat then.

No the KKK remained a part of the democrats to this day and their influence is still part of the democrat party. Don't forget that the Jim Crow laws were democrat initiatives. Martin Luther King was a republican and the democrats fought his ideas tooth and nail.

again, you're very wrong. The last of the conservatives in the Democratic Party left during the civil rights movement. That includes the KKK. Liberals have never been the party that supported and promoted racism. It's ALWAYS been a staple of conservative ideals.

The civil rights movement is THE REASON for the finality of liberals in the Republican Party.
Allthingscurious · 46-50, M
MLK was a progressive liberal to the core. Any association to the Republican Party is a myth.
