4. the worse things they ever done ?



and how you think they were looked upon internationaly

6. what did george bush and ronald reagan really do for america ?



what was so special about richard nixon ?

For God's sake tell you? Is God that interested in such mundane things? And why is everyone from other countries always so interested in what we think about our presidents?

Da10th: George Washington

1) he fought for the American ideals of freedom, and though the odds where against him in the beginning, he stuck through the campaign as the general of the American forces and shared the horrible battlefield conditions found @ Gettysburg and still motivated a starving force to continue the fight for independance.

2) He appealed to a great deal of people that wanted freedom from Great Britain. To those that wanted to be able to dictate the terms of their own life and not be ruled by a tyrant thousands of miles away.

3) The greatest thing he did was command the American forces during the revolution. Upon being the 1st president, he proclaimed that he did not want to be a king because that is what the war was against, an oppressed tyranny.

4)The worst thing he ever did would have to be the fact that he allowed his emotions to control his decisions alot of times. He would make foolhardy decisions at the spur of the moment.

5)Not everyone loved Bill Clinton

6)Which George Bush? As far as Reagan, he bankrupted the Soviet Union which lead to it's collapse. He also was a reason through his great diplomacy & speeches, led to the fall of the Berlin Wall which in turn freed thousands oppressed by the Soviet Regime.

7) Which Kennedys?

8)And yes, American politics are all about greed & fear. Although the Obama administration has a more humanitarian approach, greed & fear is still used to drive U.S. politics.

welcome to the thread Da10th and thanks for helping to bring things ' alive '



there's a hell of a lot to talk about here now !



but before we start

1. what has australia's relationhip with america always been like ?



2. how would you compare australia's relation with the united states of america against its relationship with the united kingdom ?



3. thanks for letting us know about george washington



4. when you say " ruled by a tryant thousands of miles away " do you know how bad things really were between the british and the americans during those days ?



5. and were things ever really bad between the british and the australians ?



6. what bad decisons did george washington make then ?



7. how did who bankrupt the soviet union ?



8. and what do you think about all the kennedy's ?

Gettysburg? Seriously?

Gettysburg was a Civil War battle not evolutionary war. Washington would have to have been a very lively corpse to be doing any commanding in the 1860's.

tell us more about this Galactic_bodhi ?

Sorry... My bad. Since they are Presidents I thought I could sneak in the party line. Since I'm not a Democrat. Will I be forgiven?

you're still be party political cameraman
