17. I can't believe the number of people on this board
that don't like Clinton. Could it be be that you are too young to remember past presidents? I've watched Kennedy, Johnson, Reagan, Carter, Bush, Nixon, Ford, and believe me, Clinton is the best since Kennedy.
The first time I voted I stood in line with the measles to vote for Kennedy, he said all the things that I wanted to hear. Civil rights mainly, minimum wage. I'm white but I never thought it was right that blacks went to a different school, were not allowed in some theaters and restaurants and that was in Indiana. In the south it was worse. Went to DC with parents and was told I couldn't sit in the back of bus because blacks or 'coloreds' at that time had to sit there.
Didn't care for Johnson, seemed like the guys in Vietnam were fighting with one hand behind their backs. Just didn't seem like the war was being fought to win. No fault of the soldiers.
Nixon was awful, I liked Ford ok, but most didn't like him because he pardoned Nixon.
I thought Carter seemed like a nice man but not a good president.
I thought GHWB was bad but that was before Junior Bush came along. Now I really know what bad is.
That is why I like Clinton so much. And, I'd rather have a president that ****** a woman than the whole country.
