No really, help us out here :0)

Did you just mean “we don’t take history lessons from usurpers”? That would make sense.

Then by all means, enlighten me instead of using this kind of sloppy, clipped nonsense. If you can't post full thoughts on this forum perhaps you should refrain from posting at all.

When a person is so “nuanced”, the world is a more complicated place. I’m of the opinion there is right and wrong and good and evil, and we make choices. I guess that notion is outdated. I’m glad we’ve got a guy who is so intellectually diverse. /s

Whether the world is more ‘complicated’ than in 1945 is a matter of debate. But 0bama’s policies are definitely making it more complicated yet, which is something he clearly doesn’t comprehend.
