The Most Important Election...Again

Watched a PBS documentary on George H. W. Bush last night. His special talents at the international level led to the peaceful dismantling of the Soviet Union, German reunification, and getting Iraq out of Kuwait. He also resolved the S & L crisis. His budget and tax increase led to 60% of the economic growth during Clinton's years, but was political suicide going back on his "no more taxes" promise. He was an effective President.

McCain and Romeny were leftist Republicans. They would have done some of damage of Obama, and probably little good. So if Obama is -100%, we could say they'd be -33%. In this election we have ultra leftist Clinton at -100% and rightest Trump at +75%. So this election has the most difference between candidates and therefore is more important. McCain and Romney were both horrible candidate, being leftist Republicans.
