I believe that is easy to say, but impossible to do.
One of Obama's pledges was to remove us from two wars, and for the most part he has done this. However, in hindsight this has turned out to be a bad decision. He doesn't want to send tens of thousands of troops back into Iraq because the Republicans will quickly say "He went back on his promise to us".
This needs to be about doing the right thing, not about constantly attacking the other side. This is what it has come down to - The person in the Oval office is nothing more than a target, the opposition will do nothing but attack every decision made and spin it as bad.
I saw Jeb Bush on the news the other night saying "We need to fix the economy". HUH? Last time there was Republican in office they utterly destroyed the American dream - I mean, people were loosing their houses left and right. That was Jeb's brother. Now we need another Bush to fix our low 5.3% unemployment rate?
Politics is all about spin. I can't wait for this election.
