I take a different approach to comparing Obama and Bush with who is to blame. I see that Bush has done some good but yet some bad with the economy as well as Obama. Do I believe Obama killed the economy by himself? No, I think it was unraveling with Bush but it fell into the Obama administration. But, I also see Obama doing things and creating debt that shouldnt be there to create, especially during this time of the economic failure. I think they both are to blame and they both started to create in areas that was to benefit the few or cost many. Each term, every president has to deal with the past presidents mess ups, some are there when they come into office, some plop in 6 months to a year later. I think we should eliminate having both parties because not everyone votes their party from day one but also every time we lean lft for a term or right for a term, we end up back in the middle one way or another.
