It seems to me that the point of nopardons' post was that the election of more Republican presidents than Democrat presidents still hasn't moved the ball forward in the abortion struggle.
IOW, how much have presidents actually impacted the issue? Bush did much by making his two Supreme Court appointments. But even if Roe v. Wade were overturned (and I pray it will be), there will still be a huge mountain to climb to restrict abortion in state or federal law.
At this stage in scientific development, 'restricting abortion' is no longer the cogent factor to consider. But hanks for your input. BTW, libertarian values are not going to take over FR or the Republican party this season ... another, later season, maybe.
