Seriously? The president has so little to do with how the country turns out, but hey!

*friendly arm around shoulder* This may not seem like the thread for it, but there's a few things you don't yet know about my pal Mr Duck's sense of humour..

Just when South Park had jolted me out of my tin-foil...
You made me into a 911 truther again dammit :mad:
Oh well, only the paranoid survive. (Except for all the scientists and expert commentators in that video... :sweat: )

Nah, it's just that I've heard that same line said about Clinton, and not only is it not particularly funny, but some people may actually believe that bullshit.

He can veto, allow, or propose destructive policies.

I apologise for being an ignorant Brit but who is the person in the third frame? He seems to resemble the Candian Prime Minister but his hairstyle would suggest otherwise.

You'd be forgiven for thinking he was taking part in one of those appalling adverts for getting your teeth fixed so you look like everyone else but in fact he's (

Jimmy Carter is badass. One of the very few modern leaders in this country who wasn't born into wealth and power, and one of the greatest humanitarians we've ever had.
If people voted for Obama thinking we were getting a child of privilege who was going to start another Vietnam, that's kind of weird. Maybe they were just hopeful some trailer trash would assassinate him 2 years into his presidency?

A Joe Biden presidency would keep me happy for at least six weeks.

. . . So, no, he's not a good guy.
Probably, but I'm English so I measure US Presidents by how little harm they do to the rest of the world. And, to me, he didn't seem to do much harm. But then I have a crap memory.

I was just a kid at the time, but I mainly remember the Carter administration for Watt Watcher campaigns, a half-hearted attempt to convert to the metric system, stagflation, and hostages in Iran.
