Ronald Reagan's standard: "Are you better off ... ?" In 2017? In 2021?

Governor Reagan's closing statement after his debate w/ President Carter included Reagan looking into the camera and asking:

"Are you better off ... " (after 4 years of President Carter's stewardship?)

a) Is that a viable standard for appraising a president's performance? Is it a valid basis to consider voting an incumbent another 4 years, or voting him out of office?

b) What conclusion would you draw, if you apply this Reagan standard to the 8 year presidency of the younger President Bush?

c) What conclusion would you draw if you apply this same standard to the 8 years of the Obama administration?

d) And do you think we'll be better off 4 years from now?

John Kasich says now that he never would have taken the United States to war in Iraq -- but the Ohio governor supported then-President George W. Bush's push for war in 2002.
In an interview with CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union" aired Sunday, Kasich said, "I would never have committed ourselves to Iraq."

But in November 2002, Kasich, then a former congressman, made a very different argument during an event at The Ohio State University, as the United States was gearing up for war in Iraq.
"We should go to war with Iraq. It's not likely that (Saddam) Hussein will give up his weapons. If he did he would be disgraced in the Arab world," he said then.
Kasich's 2002 comments, in front of a crowd of 100 students at the Kuhn Honors and Scholars House, were reported at the time by The Lantern, Ohio State's student newspaper, under the headline: "Fireside speaker favors war with Iraq."

Anyone who was truly anti-war supported continued inspections - regardless of the intel.

I don't consider you to be anti-war, at all. You're voting for Hillary, who authorized the Iraq War.

The easy and clear answer is a resounding "NO." Just listen to the rhetoric from the Democrats; racism, wage inequality, wage stagnation and income inequality. All are the moronic talking points from the left as if Obama hasn't been President the last eight years. Then when you add the disaster and massive costs of ObamaCare to this debacle of a Presidency, you get a capital "F" for FAIL.
