Are you asking for a consensus of opinion? I think that's what it's called, even at Pitt State. If that is so, read the thread! You will be enlighted by Greeks from Near and Far! DA!

OP on message boards always means original poster. And I am quite certain that we have a near consensus on opinions about the original poster in this thread.

Tom;
PLEASE do what I did-down load the spell check plug in.
It was not working for awhile; have to guess that John renewed contract.

Is there a "grasping the english language" plug-in?

Yes, but there isn't one for Earpese.

Tom Earp 12-14-2006 04:19 PM

That is Earpspeak thank you!:D

So now that everyone is so un worried about spelling, what about the origninal question?

So, Reagan won, and everyone thinks He was great, He played a very good role of President and was loved.

Kennedy was around in the Legislature and had daddys money behind him!

He, Clinton, Carter, IKE, were right for their times. Has not History proven differently at times?

One of the under deemed President material was the Vice President under FDR who died unexpectedly by the name of Harry Truman.

So, what does the Big O bring to the table? For that fact what does The Hillary bring to the table?:confused:

Clinton [and] Carter . . . were right for their times. Has not History proven differently at times?

I know lots of people who would dispute these assertions and would say that history has proven or will prove differently with Carter, Reagan and Clinton.

I was just about to say that in a not-so-eloquent or polite manner. ;)

Someone could have issue with each one of these contentions. It takes quite a while to be able to judge a President's tenure, and there have been pretty fierce debates on the ability of Kennedy, Truman, and many others. It's just a very subjective judgment in most cases.

It's a bit too soon to start judging Clinton or even Reagan at this point.

Reagan will be viewed fondly. Clinton will too, although in a schoolboy got-in-trouble-but-we-love-him kinda way. Carter will be viewed as a complete failure, because thats what he was. His recent actions certainly aren't helping.

Agree whole heartedly!

Clinton who is vilified by the Bush Adm. was times good for people. But said tough timew were his fault not the B Adm.

Reagan was a popular President who was almost assinated.

Carter was, well, he was a judgemental call and won.

Kennedy was a very Charismatic speaker and was trying to do the right thing until his untimely death.

IKE a war hero and did the start of the Internet Highway system.

So, give me a poor boy from Missouri named Truman.:D
