I think he should be above all three: Carter, Clinton and George H.W. Bush.
He gave us the worst recession since the Great Depression. That’s why people can’t stand him. And he gave us the most deficit spending ever — until Obama came along. That’s why this conservative can’t stand him and his “compassionate” conservatism.
Oh yes, he’s also the reason Barak O. is president - people were reacting to Bush’s recession and his disastrous presidency.
How could anyone prefer Mr new world order no new taxes over W?
“I think he should be above all three: Carter, Clinton and George H.W. Bush.”
I don’t like him but would agree with your statement.
Bush Sr. wasn't that good on domestic affairs, but he managed winding down the Cold War very well. If his son had shown such competence, you might be right, but he didn't.
