26. I've paid attention to politics for quite a few years
No, I'm not disappointed really. I voted for him because I wanted the Iraq war to end and he was at least talking about it. I am not really sure how much our voted really mean, but I voted because my friend's son was serving in Iraq and I promised her I would vote.

In my opinion, it is still too early to tell what his legacy will be. The country became quite a mess in the years that bush held office and I knew it was not going to change overnight.

Quite honestly, I don't think we have the power to vote in what we want, I just play the game these days.
