0bama has a legacy alright.

Bringing us to #4 in competitiveness.
2 credit drops.
Basically being a quitter “Managing a nation in decline” 0bama’s words.

Yup, the coke head, and the pedo did nothing but cause the U.S. to decline.

Democrat politicians are being advised to announce that they are candidates for President for two reasons:

1. To try and hide bribe money.
2. To claim that any legal proceedings brought against them are purely political.

So this is Joe Biden’s chance at “My turn”?

Does not past performance mean ANYTHING to the powers that control nominations? Biden unsuccessfully sought the Democratic presidential nomination in 1988 and in 2008, both times dropping out after lackluster showings.

And how does Gropin’ Joe hope to overcome the years of allegations that he is just a little too fond of touching and smelling hair? Remember, there is LOTS of photographic evidence, and some first impressions, once formed, are hard to shake off.

Add to that the tarnish that has fallen on his son Hunter, who has ties with the Ukraine government that have apparently paid very well, and the apparent “assistance” that Joe provided to Hunter in acquiring this very lucrative cash flow. Inquiring minds want to know.

I believe Hunter (or if not him, Beau) also got a deal as an adviser to a Chinese investment firm after flying there with Joe on Air Force 2. So, the Ukraine deal wasn't the only one.

The details are in Schweizer's "Secret Empires" book.

Trump has trashed Obama’s legacy in two years, After the next 6, Obama will be a footnote on how bad a POTUS can be elected.

Biden has no fire in the belly. How hard is he willing to work? Obama probably wants Harris or Booker unless Michelle is the Vice President pick.

If push comes to shove among the democrats, the media is going to protect and promote the new whacked out far left progressives at the expense of Biden. So if that means having to allow the light of truth to shine on Biden and the incredible 8-year destruction he co-authored with Obama, then that’s what’s going to happen.

Looking forward to it.

Since 1960 the Democrats have won the White House with candidates who came out of left field - Kennedy, Carter, Clinton, Obama - and have lost the White House when they ran party establishment - Mondale, Kerry, Hillary. The odds of Biden winding up in the White House are somewhat slim.

Article is spot-on.

Biden has put himself in the position of having to explain to the Radical Left why the administration he was part of did not usher in an age of Socialist Nirvana when they had eight years to do so.

Biden stumbling around trying to answer that question is really going to undermine whatever legacy Obama may have at this point.

Is Biden another Bob Dole or John McCain? It is his turn?
The difference is Biden doesn’t like anyone who voted for Trump.

Legacy? They were in power for eight years and accomplished ... nada. Oh! Sorry, my bad, they did kill OBL but even that was almost botched, at least according to the movie. And Barry has yet to endorse him so ...his chances of getting the nomination is at best a long shot. What’s more, IIRC, he voted for the Iraq War so his chances are slim. But legacy won’t come into play.

Question I have is about the culpability of the perv and his son concerning the Ukrainian episode. Would Barr have the nads to indict if illegality is proven? just a thought
