Ronald Reagan-Bill Clinton Poll

Which president did more to improve the lives of Americans?

Need to realize that what Obama is saying doesn't mean everything he did was awesome. You won't find this poll indicating many who believe that... or that Bill Clinton wasn't good for america.

That's not the point.

What i think is THREATENING about Obama's comment is that it's a back-handed attack on Clinton's legacy, and let's be honest. Bill Clinton's personal attacks on Obama are insane and reflect his unfortunate narcissism. Putting his legacy on the line is what he deserves after the last few weeks.

He oughta bow down and get out of the way, because all he's doing it putting his own legacy on the line.

Then again... for Bill... his legacy is on the line via Hillary and that's the problem.

I assure you most Democrats , while they won't speak ill of the dead, hold Ronald Reagan in very low regard...

:eyes:

You can vote however you want...

Just to be a pain in the ass :shrug:

Not to worry, in real life it was quite different.

you don't know what the hell you're talking about. I'm a Kucinich person, and I didn't vote for Reagan.

I must've missed that.

Sure.

Seventies...

Excesses don't seem to have a positive connotation...

It's mission: to create a federal government that "works better, costs less, and gets results Americans care about" and it's list of accomplishments include trimming away what some may call "excess."

Did Obama say Reagan did more to help America? I must have missed that.

It's amazing the Freudian reading some have of my survey...

How does sex figure into this discussion?

;)

jk :pals:

:shrug:

It's a secret poll...

I don't need a secret poll. I'm not ashamed of my opinions, but thanks.

certaily not good. I'm sorry, but I really can't forgive Clinton for continuing -- and expanding -- the bogus 'war on drugs'. Because it's that 'war' that paved the way for it's ugly younger brother, the so-called 'war on terror' and a continued eroding of our civil liberties.

I'm an independent, not a party loyalist. I want change, and I care about the Truth above ANY party.

Reagan was my first glimpse into our true foreign policy. My opinion is he brought about the whole mess we are in the Middle East now. All administrations have done it. Reagan brought it to a new level and in more areas I think.

that he continued so many of Reagan's policies.

Perhaps that's why some Democrats are praising him now because we still operate under the framework he created and change can only be made at the margins...

as I thought he was going to do, I would be all full of praise for the guy. But instead, he continued -- and in fact increased -- the privatization of prisons and the jailing of non-violent offenders. He continued the push to the right, so I can't forgive him for that.

did obama say anything about how Reagan improved our lives?
