The United States always seems to be in a hard time. Just look at footage and pictures from the past and you'll see that people constantly refer to the present "these trying times." Just wanted to say that xP

Anyway, I respect FDR for getting the United States out of the great depression. Of course it wasn't solely him, but the plans enacted in the New Deal were very innovative and needed at the time. In fact, I have always believed that Obama needs to take a leaf out of FDR's book and focus more on creating public work programs.

Thanks a lot, Obama. Why'd you guys vote for him, anyway?

I hate to say this, but Hitler is the first name that comes to mind. During WW2, the German economy was doing very well. I'm not saying his methods were very "likeable", but those Nazis sure were efficient, if anything.

My parents didn't vote for him. I do NOT like him at all. Hitler kept them out of debt, but I think that I would have to say Teddy Rosevelt.

They all suck.

In their own way, of course. They all did something pretty freaking stupid.

He also made the autoban and helped along the voxwagan witch was one of the first cars used by normal people. Im not saying he was great, but ignoring the Jewish, communist, and deformed scapegoat he was good...


It depends on what aspect you mean. Good ol' Rosevelt's polocies helped take us out of the great deppreshion, there are several greek leaders I whould say were the best militaraly, and the best at making us brown knose other cuntries I whould say ... a guy in my class...

If by best, you mean someone that can pull a country/area to become a world dominator -- regardless of military history but military leadership -- I would say Hitler.

Nobody likes him, but its hard to deny that he's a genius -- except when his ego got in his pants and he invaded Russia and then wondered why his troops froze.
He brainwashed [well, taught] every student in Germany about his regime and created a well disciplined army and pulled the German economy out of the rubble it was in.
Granted, he was a threat to the world internationally -- he even denied to pay back the funding [ridiculous as it was] for WWI
-- but putting all that aside -- he excelled as a leader.

Its almost like FDR saving us from the depression -- AND taking over Canada and Mexico

Well he hated communist, he thought Russia was week, and then there is that ego thing... but ya, he was good aside from that massacre thing. I remember a quote vaguely... "Few people can be happy unless they hate some other person, nation, or creed."

Its funny that you think its Obama's fault the country is messed up, when in fact it was worse before he was president.

Presidents can't even affect the economy at all.

The economy effects itself, nothing can influence it without drastic change. It's like God, but not exactly.

That's because Japan doesn't have an army. The closest thing to having an army in Japan is our army bases in Japan that are protecting them. Armies cost money, and Japan doesn't have an army which gives them more money.

You can't blame Obama for what his predecessor did.

I decided to put two and two together (it makes 5). The country is messed up, and Obama needs to be blamed for something, so why not blame him for it? Just for the fun of it.

Sure I can. It may not be his fault, but I can still blame it on him.

They had one in World War II, but the Americans killed them all.

That's not the reason they don't have an army! It's because we won't let them because of what happened last time!
