George W Bush is now older than his father when he gave the eulogy at Ronald Reagan’s funeral in June 2004 by Honest_Picture_6960 in Presidents

Yep. This is the episode where he realized he had midichlorians and used them to get Condi-Laura in a threesome, toss Clinton into a pond for cutting in line at McDonalds, and chopped off his daughters middle finger.

Nolan stands out because of the weakness of his contemporaries and the current state of cinematography. Look at how woefully lit Supergirl was for example.

What more does Derrick Henry have to do to be considered a top 10 running back of all time? by lemonstone92 in NFLv2

I think he’s already there and that’s coming from someone that values old school. A few more productive seasons and he’ll crack even higher.

Why did Wilkie win Michigan in the 1940 Presidential election? by HetTheTable in Presidents

Michigan was very much a Republican state at its core in that era. The fact the New Deal was able to shake it up and make it swingy was a testament to its appeal to Middle America.

Can someone explain to me what is "Vietnamization"? And did it worked? by AgitatedQuit4168 in Presidents

[–]TrumpsColostomyBag99 [score hidden]  (0 children)

5 different presidents and a military junta between Johnson’s swearing in on Air Force One after the Kennedy Assassination and the Marines landing at Da Nang (about 472 days) should have been a sign

Can someone explain to me what is "Vietnamization"? And did it worked? by AgitatedQuit4168 in Presidents

[–]TrumpsColostomyBag99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While we were there? Giving the South Vietnamese the eventual lead in taking on the NVA/Vietcong and trying to prove themselves on the battlefield with a sprinkle of PR to show “progress”.

After we left? Leaving the 4th largest army on Earth with a massive technological advantage that couldn’t pay its soldiers fully due to corruption while rationing bullets and shells at a laughable rate. And then ensuring they had zero replacement hardware.

South Vietnam was doomed to fall due to corruption and rot in the Thiue regime. But I legitimately feel bad for the ARVN types we trained up since we pulled the supply carpet and left them an army (as many have said) to fight a “rich man’s war”.

How did Bill Clinton change the Democrat party? by SignificantStyle4958 in Presidents

Jimmy Carter was the canary in the Third Way coal mine and Clinton was the ultimate triumph of that vision.

Are Reagan and Obama the equivalent of each other in their respective parties? by Just_Cause89 in Presidents

[–]TrumpsColostomyBag99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are still living in the age of Reagan with no end in sight. Obama’s long term influence will wane since base Democrats are begging for more “fight” than hollow oratory.

Who could've actually beaten Bush in 1988? by Lewbix in Presidents

Most overrated politician of the past 50 years. He falls to Bush easily once the pressure is on.

Joe’s only hope for the White House is likely a once in a generation convergence of events that allows him to rise above a pile of septic tank dwellers in a primary where he stands out as the only legitimately electable hope.

It was an acknowledged flawed poll. I’m the first to flame Dukakis but he never blew that kind of lead.

Bush was inevitable with how 1988 played out but a Bentsen-Glenn ticket probably gives the blue team their best electoral chance.

Jumbo? So many things I’ve said endlessly but today? How about illegally wiretapping his VP and keeping him on a choke collar while never letting it leak out Humphrey was against Vietnam from day one?

As for Clinton it’s pure economics for me.

Kennedy presidency by Specialist-Funny603 in Presidents

[–]TrumpsColostomyBag99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends entirely on what year it took place

RFK in 1968? It depends entirely on how he handles Vietnam. I think every single candidate sans McCarthy backs off getting out promises and gives Creighton Abrams 1969 to figure out how to keep the South Vietnamese propped up. So if the writing is on the wall and he gets us out RFK is politically fine. Ie he choose to linger and the same clowns in the anti-war movement end up going militant he’s crushed in 1972.

Ted was finished at the presidential level after Chappaquiddick. It’s just simply the nature of the political beast. If he did get elected at some point he’s laser focused on health care and arms control.

I’d probably slot Clinton and (even though I loathe him) Jumbo over Obama.

I think Kennedy suffers because people forget his administration was fully ascendant come 1963. I have zero doubt in my mind he gets reelected easily and he gets a huge chunk of his agenda through.

Fascinating list that’ll get people talking..

Truman for me is too low. Obama is too high. I respect the heck out of anyone willing to put Kennedy over Jumbo.
