Do you think Bush's disasterous ruin of this country lead to a possible History making in our lifetime?

Question

Before Bush took over office, there was no way in h**l that anyone would've thought we could see a black man possibly becoming a president of this most racist country called U.S.A. I never thought this happen this decade. I always thought we would need another 100 years before a black would be elected!

Do you look at Bush's ruin of this country as a disaster or a blessing in disguise that we may finally have a non-middle aged white male running this country?

Answer 1

Speak for yourself and leave me out of your "no way in h**l that anyone thought we would see a black man ..." We've had a number of black candidates -- Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Alan Keyes, etc. but none had the overall charisma and presence of Obama.  

And keep in mind that Bush couldn't have "ruined" this country without the help of Congress. Spread the blame around just a little bit.

Answer 2

Wow if you hate America that bad why are you sticking around? How is electing a racist black man going to help this "racist" country as you put it?

Please define middle aged as you see it.

Answer 3

I don't know why you thought a Black couldn't get elected to the Presidency.  Blacks have been elected to every other public office.

As to the ruination of the country, it's a historical cycle, look for new prosperity in 20 years.  Or maybe you are right, Bush did it single-handedly.

Answer 4

You mean that we could have a possible president who associates with domestic terrorist and a black racist spiritual leader. Then dis owns them when it is pollitically expedient?  

Answer 5

Wow, I never looked at it that way - Bush paved the way for Obama.  Finally, I can see one positve in the Bush legacy.
