i am 40 & still waiting for a president that does not make me feel disappointed i voted for him.
1992 - clinton. promised midddle class tax cut, first thing he did was took that back. then he got a haircut on the LAX airport runway, & unleashed hillarycare on us. letdown.
1996 - dole, lost. letdown. what were the republicans thinking running that old fossil? stupid. in retrospect, he was the last powerful republican moderate. didnt know at the time how bush would move the party far right.
2000 - bush. was happy when he won over gore. was happy he was in charge when 911 happened. But once he said he didnt care where osama was, & by 2002 it was all iraq & from that moment on, letdown. Bush also made me see christian conservatives are a cancer on right wing politics. 2008 meltdown made me rethink the merit of republican bank deregulation. the subsequent rich-only recovery made me see there is no trickle down.
2004 - did not vote for a president, refused to support either candidate.
2008 - obama. was sold on the rhetoric of lobbyist reform. that did not happen, first letdown. But happy with his other policies which are mostly moderate republican. the fact the repubs fight their own agenda, like romneycare, makes me mad at my party. But today, obama is bloviating on the islamic nazis growing on his watch. he cant even call them what they are, trying to nuance what to call them. Watching him be a liberal tard on the issue of ISIS is making me insecure. letdown. but overall, still my favorite president in my lifetime. i understand now that nothing can change the culture of beltway lobby corruption if obama cant.
2012 - did not vote again. cannot support republican that opposes his own health plan, & thinks half the country are takers. could no longer support obama after letting wall street bankers off hook & not fighting for public option in his own plan. without public option obamacare is gold rush for needless insurance industry. i might be democrat now ever since both parties bending to the wealthy is perverting our economy. warren buffetts secretary pays higher tax rate than buffett? WTF???
for my next choice, i get hillary & what? no eisenhowers or teddy roosevelts in the bunch. the only teddy roosevelt is elizabeth warren, a democrat, who is not running. wonderful.
other than that, its great to be an american porn producer.
