Dems, Repubs and everything between, would you prefer Clinton over Obama?

I'd take Carter over Obama.

Prefer, no.

Everyone ITT thinks that since Obama is the president of the United States while the recession and all this shit is going on that he's the sole problem of everything.

Let's not get crazy now.

That is probably why things went so well during the '90. More time spend on stupid stuff, meant less time spent "governing".

This.

Things go well when there is gridlock, when congress is split so neither side can do much of anything, and the white house is held by the party that doesn't have much power in congress.

The less government does, the less it screws up. Once you realize that government screws up just about everything it does, it makes sense that the less it does the better off we all are.
