Barack Obama
In reply to the discussion: I Blame Obama! A Poll for Members of the BOG. [View all]Grateful for Hope
(39,320 posts)53. I voted -not sure if I can be considered a member of the BOG, though
I subscribe to this group and I read it, but I don't tend to post much anywhere these days.
I voted that Obama is the best president of my lifetime, and this is saying a lot as I am not young. I remember Kennedy (I was in junior high when he was assassinated), and I would have said that he was the best president before this presidency.
I don't agree with some of his decisions, but I do think he does what he feels is right.

Good for you, and so many others! And pre-existing conditions are part of life. Denying was wrong.

And I'm very grateful. I supported it when I thought I wouldn't be helped, for the future of others.
