This is how I would grade them.


Obama:

Constitution- F (Overall he is very weak)

Foreign Policy- C+ (Pulled out of Iraq and is going after OBL but still highly involved with the UN and Israel)

Economy- F-

Ending drug war- B+(Supports Medical Marijuana)

Ending affirmative action- F-

Second Amendment rights- F-

Ending abortion- F-

States Rights- F-

Government spending- F-




Bush:

Constitution- F (Overall he was awful)

Foreign Policy- F-

Economy- D-(He did enact tax cuts as puny as they were)

Ending drug war- F-

Ending affirmative action- D+

Second Amendment rights- A (DC vs Heller and also an NRA member as well as his appointees)

Ending abortion- A+(Went out of his way to stop abortion)

States Rights- D+(Appointed Superme Court Justices that support States rights and also a former governor)

Government spending- F- (Massive defense spending and endless unconstitutional spending)

Is this based on theory or policy? Bush did absolutely nothing about abortion, nor has Obama done anything about the Drug war. Obama might have talked about medical marijuana being okay, but people are still getting arrested.

Theory

Well, if you look at what Bush campaigned on in 2000, he would be much higher in all those scores...

Actually, I'd say it is both policy and principle.

Because the same special interests own both of them ;)
