Hell, avoiding 4 more years of Bill would have been enough. But yes. I agree.

Bills 2nd term was overshadowed by the Star investigation, Monica, his denial, his deposition, his impeachment and finally the 2000 election.

He hoped to turn it around with an Israeli/Palestine peace deal but it fell apart.

reply

The Media made such a big deal of him being too old to be president. I think he was 70 years old at the time. We have now had President Trump who was in his early 70s during his term and are now dealing with the horror of Dementia Joe at 78.

reply

Age is a valid issue. It would be amusing though to compare the statements of media talking heads on that issue, THEN with Dole and more recently with BIDEN, though.

Bob Dole had limited use of his left arm from being in WW2. I never saw that as a big deal. He was more than capable compared to Joe with his mental gaffes.

reply

Agreed.

“If you vote for Bob Dole you get Bob Dole.”

It would’ve been nice to avoid the corrupt Clintons all together. Only elected because Perot split the Republican vote. Clinton got 43% of the vote in 1992.

Then we had Hilarys FBI file gate which she should’ve gone to jail for. And afterwards the Democrats went from hating the FBI to suddenly loving it. And now it’s a democrat weapon used again their political opponents. Corrupt beyond repair.

reply

When you hear of the death toll of those who went against the Clintons, it’s pretty shocking.

Jiminy Christmas...
