WORST. PRESIDENT. EVER. I know, I briefed both he and President Reagan.

Worst president by far in my lifetime.

To be bluntly accurate, the only thing new is that one of the final two candidates is black.

Actually, only one fourth of the final two candidates is black.

"the only thing new is that one of the final two candidates is black"

...and a Marxist...and a muslim (despite his protestations)

The problem is, most of my largely ignorant and pathetically politically under-educated generation is falling for this turd. "They want change" they tell me. If they wanted change all they had to do is ask: I usually have some quarters in my pocket--i'd be happy to lend it.

But seriously, they have no conception of the larger reality that exists, and are trapped in the "Hippie mentality". I just pray that, like most other elections, the fools in my generation will just stay home.

I have a family member who thinks Carter was the greatest ever. Of course, she was a child when he was president. I was just setting up my first household.

Every so often I talk about the gas lines, the fact there were no jobs, hyperinflation, etc. She looks at me like I have two heads. She doesn’t remember, she has no concept. She’s bought into the MSM spin.

She’s in her 40’s, so anyone her age or younger doesn’t remember. But I also remember the Reagan landslide after Obama.

If it weren’t for the three scotus seats that will likely come open in the next term I might considering voting for Obama just so the country could see what a real Democratic Presidency looks like. After spending 4 years wondering in the wilderness the Republicans reinvented themselves for 1980. they need to reinvent themselves again and take advantage of 4 years out of office to determine what if anything they stand for.

Obama has the potential to dislodge Carter from his position as worst president. Hillary may only be able to move Buba out of second place.

I saw a “Re-Elect President Carter” bumpersticker today.
