President Reagan was far and away the best president of my lifetime. He made us proud not only of being Americans but being who we are personally as well. He didn't care about race, color, creed, sexual orientation or anything else like that. President Reagan loved America. Period. When I stop to think of what has become of his shining city on the hill and what the following presidents and their parties have done with all the good he did, it makes me want to projectile vomit everything i've got right down to my shoes. I love this country with all my heart and soul. There is absolutely no other place on earth I would rather live then right here in the great U.S.A. period!

[@sid6.764]

foulpotato, you presume incorrectly. Obama will go down in history as the single worst president in the history of presidents as the most destructive, divisive and incompetent president we've ever seen with Clinton running a very close second being only the second president in history to be impeached. As far as Bush goes, I think he got screwed in his first term with the whole 9-11 thing. He has said outright that he did want very much to defend our coutry but not in the way the Democrats drove him into. I don't believe Bush was a strong enough president to handle all of the shit that was thrown at him and thats why I think he gave up trying about half way through his second term and stopped trying. I think trump will turn out to be the best president we've had since Reagan. He knows how to run very large industries and I've always believed that economically this country should be run like a business and he's a great negotiator for foreign policies. He's done great so far. The economy is a 30 year record highs, other countries are starting to respect America again and all this in spite of all the left's constant attacks, lies and bullshit trying to bring him down. I swear I have never in my life seen or even heard of a once respectable political party go to such great lengths to sabotage and unseat a duly elected president. Unbelievable.
