lol. That's a tough call. Bush Jr's policies were terrible and Obama's are terrible as well. Me personally? I'm pining for the Clinton years. Even though I've voted for the GOP in almost all elections, except for when I voted for Kerry and then Obama, I still say that Clinton was the best President we've had in my lifetime (fyi, I was born in 1960). Yes, in my opinion, I think Clinton was a better President than Reagan, although I really liked Reagan, but I hated his massive spending and deficits. Clinton was a fiscal moderate. He was balanced and practical and he dialed back the welfare state and produced surpluses with a combination of tax hikes and spending cuts. Well done. His major economic policy failure was allowing Glass-Steagal to be repealed in 1999. For that I can't forgive him, but on most other economic matters, his was a job well done.
