@NagolNuff: I think I agree with U. Im assuming u realize, however, that the entire foundation of our laws and constitution are rooted and intertwined with Christian/Judaeic values. So religion will, and should, always be there.

@NagolNuff: I wish Obama would read off his hand if it would help him make an intelligent decision so he stops screwing up the whole country.

@Nova`Prime`: I dont look at polls too much. I look at facts. No question that Obama  has had the worst first year of any president in decades. And it's also true that he has been wrong about mostly everything. Folk call Palin dumb, but in every area u want to look at she has been more competent than Obama.

@FLCL1: To me, no one is dumber than Obama. At least Palin has been a success at her jobs. Obama is on pace to be the worst president in decades!

"POHOCOM says:
Not really. Presidents are judged by historians based on how well they coped with the problems that they faced left over from the previous administration, as well as problems which arose during their administration. That's why Reagan's considered a great president even by Democrats like Bill and Hillary Clinton (to name a few). He corrected the numerous disasters left by Jimmy Carter, who many see as one of our worst presidents in history. I can't think of ANY president that is beyond criticism, but you have to weigh all of the pros and cons."

Except I'm a historian, and I lived through the Reagan adminstration. I'm sorry, but the worship accorded that man is not proportionate to his performance.

Meanwhile Jimmy Carter is demonized for doing the best he could with an economic crisis that had been brewing since Nixon. While all the Republicans campaigned on "small government" Carter actually did it, reducing the number of gov't offices and employees. He led the country by example during the energy crisis. He attacked pork barrell spending and tried to get a labor reform and consumer protect act through, but that was blocked by congress. He was the few presidents to take a unilateral stand on human rights, took a stand against the U.S.S.R. in the Persian Gulf, organized the Rapid Deployment Force, and headed up the Camp David Accords.

The only major foreign policy screw up of his term was Iran, in which he backed the wrong horse and then reneged on his promises.

Reagan gets the credit for releasing the hostages of the Iranian Hostage crisis, but the fact was the agreement was signed a day before Carter's presidency ended.

If claim to be a historian, I will take your word on that. You are the first person I've heard who has professed knowledge of presidential politics with this perspective, so I'm interested in some of your opinions. I like hearing different perspectives because you sometimes learn new information. First, if you feel that Jimmy Carter gets such a bum rap for the sad state of America that existed during his presidency, I'd like to know what, if anything, you believe George Bush is getting a bad rap for right now. Second, I'd like to know why do you believe so many other politicians and historians hold Reagan in such high regard. And lastly, do you give Reagan credit for anything?

"CYBORG WINS EASILY HE COULD JUST BLAST HIM AWAY.SEE IRON MAN IS A NORMAL HUMAN HE DOESN'T GOT POWERS BUT WITH OUT HIS SUIT HES NOTHING.BUT.. CYBORG IS HALF HUMAN HALF CYBORG.THERE FOR THE WINNER IS CYBORG."

What makes you think Cyborg could separate Iron Man from his suit? Iron Man is 10 times smarter than the man who gave Cyborg his powers. He is a super genius in the areas of robotics, engineering and electronics. Iron Man also has far more sophisticated weapons at his disposal, is far more knowledgeable of how to win high tech battles, and has simply proven to be far more formidable against opponents more powerful than Cyborg. Cyborg would be an open book to Iron Man, who could win in literally 50 different ways.

He doesn't count lol.He's not class 100...he class whatever the f#ck he wants to be."

lol true"

Hulk nearly killed Herc in a fight before being saved by Zeus, but that was only because Herc had been stripped of his immortality year earlier and had not yet regained his full godly might. It was in a Hercules/Hulk team up. Also, when Hulk went on a mindless rampage in the 90's in was able to fight a full strength Hercules, Namor, Iron Man, and Wonderman by himself and hold his own! Still, I agree that I've not seen anyone outright beat Hercules with his immortal power, and I don't see Namor doing it. The one time they fought Herc had an easy time with Namor.

I think it's one of the the hardest "white collar" jobs there is. A newspaper did a "before and after" piece on American presidents. You would be stunned to see how badly a president ages in the short 1 or 2 terms they are in office.
