    Scandal free and best modern day president!

    If that's the case then W is the second best modern day president.
    Do these meet the scandal test?
    Emails and Bengazi
    The VA
    Fast and furious

    No....not even close.

    W has Iraq on his hands. Plus the exploding deficits from cutting taxes and going to war.

    Got ya. I might have to agree with you. What do you consider to be his three biggest accomplishments while in office?
    1. restoring my 401k to its pre-recession glory
    2. being awesome
    3. knowing how to sing and dance

    Add the collapse of the stock market and real estate values.
    And the cover up of the friendly fire killing of Pat Tilman

    Newsflash: Obama is the current president.

    And he's not the greatest or worst. He's a two faced neolib capitalist puppet, though, especially remaining silent during standing rock.
    i concur

    Not saying anything about Standing Rock shouldn't have surprised anyone. Obama's actions have been pretty centrist across the board for eight years.

    George W Bush has a list so long of issues and scandals a photographic memory couldn't remember them all

    these next 4 years will be worse. much worse.

    I laughed at Democrats and liberal friends in 2000 who warned Bush was going to take us to war in Iraq. Trump is surrounding himself with people who want to do the same with Iran.

    Iran is a hell a lot more scary than Iraq.
