We shouldn't deify presidents. I didn't vote for him in 2008 because I thought he was too inexperienced. I didn't vote for him in 2012 because he continued the war of terror.

The difference between him and Bush was minimal. His "legacy" is completely a media creation. We lost control of this country the day JFK was killed.
