I am only after a Plain result so no other options,

 

I’m not American so I am only superficially interested in this, from Historical and tabloidical points of view. I have never felt their politics on may body (or I have but I have never "lived" under nether of them, of course I’m old enough to have lived through both periods (since I’m born in 86), I have lived through 5 or 6 presidents)

 

Who will in 100 years of history be remembered as the better president

 

To just quote one of my teachers "HW Bush will be remembered as one of the great presidents" 

 

But I don't know

 

to set the mood for this poll. Some poll music

H.W. was more honorable, and I use that word very reluctantly.  They are descendants from Nazi lovers.

Both were pretty atrocious presidents, but at least one doesn't have the Patriot act and Gitmo on his record.

Maybe everyone who drives a Volkswagen or wears Hugo Boss is a Nazi-lover too.

Do you realize how many Jewish politicians were connected to George Bush and his cabinet?

You'd better brush up on your reading skills if you saw me denying the Bushes had anything to do with Nazis.  Wink

Let's throw one name out there: Irving Kristol. Thus evaporating any idea of a nazi connection.

You missed my point.

My point is, you don't judge a person for what a person's father or distant ancestor did.

If you indict people for crimes their ancestors committed, you have no sense of attribution of wrongdoing and I hope to The Universe that you never appear on a jury.

HW, because at least he knew how to end a war.

More importantly, NOT Dubya because he is either an easily led simpleton or a frighteningly and apologetically immoral person. Probably bits of both given his verbal foibles and refusal to admit anything wrong about waterboarding.
