Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 92: Winning Friends and Influencing People
I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass
I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I got stop wishin', got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
“A Pirate Looks at Forty”, Jimmy Buffett
There sure enough seems to be something about our “Campaigner and Political Hack-in-Chief’s” personality and shall we say character flaws that irritate, annoy and anger a lot of folks all across the political spectrum. Barack Husain Obama just has an a knack for bringing out the worst in people and evoking angry responses from politicians and Government officials historically unprecedented in this Country’s public discourse.
To our knowledge our “Provocateur-in-Chief” is the only US President that so angered a member of Congress during an address to a joint session of both Chambers he shouted out “You Lie” in response to a lie Mr. Obama proclaimed about illegal immigrants during his speech. Republican Congressman Joe Wilson from the great state of South Carolina, the guilty presidential heckler, was embarrassed, contrite, apologetic and genuinely befuddled about his egregious breach of Congressional decorum.
During a State of the Union Address our “BFF-in-Chief” openly and without shame told another whopper about a recent Supreme Court decision. The remark so enraged Justice Alito he mouthed the words “not true, not true” which was caught on camera and broadcast around the world. The good judge has subsequently announced he won’t be attending future State of the Union speeches because of the hyper partisan atmosphere surrounding the event.
Just this week a fellow Democrat, Rhode Island governor Frank Capri, told President Barack Obama to " shove it " after learning Obama would not endorse him. A most telling and illuminating remark from a senior member of the Democratic faithful.
So what exactly is it about Mr. Barack H. Obama that elicits such a hostile response from folks that typically conduct themselves in a professional and measured fashion. Truth be told it ain’t that big of a mystery:
• He’s a Socialist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Marxist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Marxist/Socialist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Bolshevik that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Secular Progressive that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Muslim apologist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a terrorist appeaser that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Yankee lawyer that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s married to a Yankee lawyer that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a racist; promoter of class warfare; pathological narcissist; hypocrite; blame America first; girly man that lies like a cheap rug
Considering this partial list of the President’s character flaws it’s certainly no surprise that most Democrats running for office in next week’s midterm elections are running like a scalded dog as fast and furious as they can away from the failed Obama/Pelosi/Reid agenda. Those few brave souls that aren’t concerned about the President annoying the hell out of their constituents have had the “Great Orator of Empty Rhetoric” out stumping on the campaign trail.
Following are several examples of his stale, historical revisionist, blame anyone but me, dishonest, infuriating, aggravating and just downright obnoxious standard remarks:
• “But we're not going to be able to get to where we need to go unless we understand how in fact we got here. We spent nearly 10 years on an economic agenda that was pretty straightforward: You cut taxes for the wealthiest among us, folks who didn't need tax cuts and weren't even asking for them; you cut rules for special interests; and you cut working folks loose so they've got to fend for themselves.
That was the philosophy of the last administration and that was the philosophy of their friends in Congress. And basically what they said is, if you can't find a job, tough luck -- you're on your own. If you don't have health insurance, too bad, tough luck -- you're on your own. If you're a young person who's trying to get to college, tough luck -- you're on your own.
Now, if you're a Wall Street bank or an insurance company or an oil company like BP, then you can write your own rules. And we know how this turned out"
A classic example of historical revisionism.
• “Think about it. Think about it. This is not a situation in which the Republicans -- after everything that they did to take record surpluses into record deficits, after all the failed policies that resulted ultimately in the worst recession since the 1930s, it's not as if they went back and they said, you know what, let's reflect on what we did wrong. (Laughter.) You know, obviously, there were some problems there, let's see if we've got a different set of theories about how we should approach the economy, and how we should look after the middle class.
They have not come up with a single, solitary idea that is any different from the policies of George W. Bush, the policies that they had in place for eight years before we had a crisis. (Applause.) What they are betting on is amnesia. (Laughter.) They are betting that you don't remember that they were in charge all this time. (Applause.) I think Pat may have mentioned to you, they're trying to get you to forget that they drove the car into the ditch. (Laughter.)
And after we've pushed it out, now they're saying, "Give us the keys back." (Laughter.) But we don't -- we haven't forgotten, because we've got mud on our shoes, our back is sore from pushing that car out of the ditch. I mean, if they want to get in the back seat, that's okay. But we're not going to put them behind the wheel.”
More lies, condescending, smart ass, sophomoric remarks. Truth be told we had a record number of months of economic expansion; unemployment averaged under 5% , and with tax breaks for everybody revenues to Federal coffers increased by over one trillion dollars under W. We’d also expect something a tad more cerebral from the Harvard Yard crowd than the car and ditch metaphor.
Lately we’ve been told their Socialist agenda isn’t popular because it’s just too hard to explain. In other words We the People are a bunch of ignorant yahoos that couldn’t possibly grasp the brilliance of these programs.
The arrogance, elitism, and disdain the Democrats and especially their leadership has shown for all of us poor dumb pilgrims that pay all the bills around here has definitely not won these boneheads any new friends or had a positive influence on any of our happy asses.
Midterm elections are next week. We encourage each and every one of you to vote early, often, and conservative.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 91: Chinese Calculus
Looking back on my past, sometimes has been a pretty strange ride
And I find it gets harder with time, to seperate the facts from the lies
Two Jerry Jeff's are in this world, Both using one ID
The other guy ain't got an idea, How hard being me can be
Well if he thinks it's gonna be easy, Think that he oughta think twice
With a high expectation and my reputation,
Man he's leading a dangerous life
“The OtherJerry Jeff Walker”, Jerry Jeff Walker
Ain’t no never mind bout it some things in life are just hard. Quantum physics; word problems – “if a train is heading north at 200 mph when will it crash head on into another train…”; running a marathon, scaling the summit at Mt. Everest; finding a cab driver in New York City that speaks English; scoring infield passes to a Monster Truck Rally and Chinese calculus are a few activities that come to mind.
According to Mr. “Foot in Mouth Dumber Than a Bag of Hammers” Vice President Uncle Joe Biden when it comes to their strategy for the upcoming election, “Democrats aren’t running on the administration’s accomplishments like health-care and financial-regulatory overhaul and the stimulus because it’s just too hard to explain”. The arrogance and elitism of this Administration is truly a sight to behold.
What exactly is Uncle Joe getting at when he claims “… it’s just too hard to explain”?
1. Actually, although certainly not his intent, Uncle Joe and his fellow liberal comrades the likes of white house Press Secretary and Senior Political Hack Robert Gibbs; Madame Speaker of The House Nancy “Did That Moronic Head Case Really Say That “Pelosi; Harry “Fixen to Be X Senator and Majority Leader” Reid; and Barbara “Don’t Call Me Mam General, Call Me Silly Winch, I’ve Earned It” Boxer are all at least one can short of a six-pack and too dim-witted to explain the legislation they conjured up and authored.
2. We the People are a bunch of ignorant yahoos who don’t have clue what’s good for us and should be grateful we have Uncle Sammy looking out for our best interest.
3. The bills in question are intentionally long, complex, and ambiguous to divert attention from their hidden agenda – Higher taxes; more government control; and a conversion to a Socialist Nanny state.
Obviously our Elitist-in-Chief and his Bolshevik brethren will never fess up and publically affirm their agreement with these claims even though all three are righter than rain.
• Uncle Joe and many of his fellow Democrat boneheads really are too dense and don’t have the mental capacity to comprehend let alone explain this legislation.
• The Administration has consistently expressed their disdain and low opinion for all of us tax payers starting with candidate Obama’s comments about clinging to our guns, God, and Bibles during the campaign.
• Veep Biden and afore mentioned company may be intellectually challenged but the President and several of his “Secret Shadow Government” of Czars know exactly what they are doing. Misguided Marxist/Socialist revolutionaries, but certainly not stupid, they have intestinally authored confusing, misleading and seemingly incomprehensible legislation that promotes their hidden agenda of creating a Communist Utopia right here in the good ole USA.
Only problem with the Administration’s “ Too hard to explain / We’re a bunch of ignorant yahoos / Write um up well beyond your typical college grad’s comprehension” strategy is that most of us poor dumb pilgrims who do all the work in this Country and foot the bill for all this insanity don’t need an explanation from Uncle Joe or any of his left wing slow coach compadres.
Fact is, we sure enough not only get it, the more we’ve learned about the Socialist philosophy, intellectually dishonest intent and almost criminal process employed to get this legislation railroaded through Congress the more PO’d we’ve become. We’re also abundantly aware of their nefarious hidden agenda and are all over this little charade like white on rice.
Following is a brief summary of the three pieces of legislation mentioned above by Uncle Joe that’s just “too hard to explain” to all of us ignorant, annoying, politically aware constituents:
Healthcare/Obamacare/Socialized Medicine
• If ultimately implemented the destruction of the world’s best healthcare system
• Cost will rise dramatically
• Quality of care will dramatically decrease
• Rationing will become SOP
• Abortions will be Federally funded
• Most folks will be forced to change docs
• End of life decisions will be dictated by pointy headed government political hacks
• The ultimate goal is to put all the private sector parties out of business and end up with Socialized medicine/Universal Care
Financial-Regulatory Overhaul:
• Over burdens businesses with oppressive and unnecessary regulations.
• Adds too much cost and compromises US Companies competitive position
• Stifles growth
• Kills jobs
• Perpetuates uncertainty
• Discourages productive risk taking
• The ultimate objective is to nationalize the entire financial services industry, redistribute all the wealth and start referring to each other as comrade at all public and private occasions
The One Trillion Dollar Stimulus:
• As the President has recently come clean on provided funding on not even one shovel ready project since such projects only exist in a liberal’s delusionary Communist compromised imagination
• The only jobs created were mostly public sector, temporary, Union and other political payoffs
• Saw unemployment hit ten percent where it still remains after we were assured it would stay south of eight percent if the Stimulus package was approved
• Has added at least another trillion dollars to the National debt without any tangible ROI
• Another Socialist initiative including a massive redistribution of wealth from all of us productive wealth generating pilgrims to Obama’s victim classes
It really ain’t hard at all to explain or comprehend the Obama Administration’s three signature legislative achievments that most Democrat candidates are running fast and furious from like a one eyed scalded dog. In the grand scheme of things they are all another component of his ultimate plan to transform the world’s most productive and successful capitalist economy into just another third world Socialist regime.
Compared to the extreme difficulty of watching the Braves lose again in the first round of post season play; enduring Auburn’s undefeated season; and learning Chinese calculus explaining and understanding Obama’s legislative agenda is a piece of proverbial baklava.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 90: Our Anything But Commander-in-Chief
“I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.”
George Washington
Our founding fathers were downright particular and exceedingly deliberate when considering options for the title to bestow upon the individual elected to lead our new government. For obvious reasons they wanted to avoid any titles that smacked of royalty or a monarchy which contradicted their tenants of a new form of government “for, by and of the people”.
After ruling out it's his ship now, his command, he's in charge, the boss, the head man, top dog, big cheese, head honcho, number one, numerous uno and you the man they settled on the title of President. They also referred to the position as Chief Executive and Commander-in-Chief.
When contemplating the attributes and characteristics of our current occupant of the White House addressing him as President is almost tolerable but Chief Executive and Commander-in-Chief can really put a hitch in the ole get along. Especially when you consider the man assumed office with absolutely no executive experience or aptitude for the job and the words Commander and Obama should never collide in the same sentence.
Over the course of the last ninety weeks we have used over 200 variations of the Commander-in-Chief title which in our humble opinion more accurately describe President Obama’s role and function. To help mark ninety weeks of the arrogance, chaos and insanity imposed upon us by the “ Yes We Can/Change/Believe” gang a review of some of the most relevant of these titles might serve as a good reminder of this Administration’s incompetence, hidden agenda and true intentions:
• Socialist-in-Chief

With the midterm elections bearing down on our Campaigner-in-Chief and his Congressional comrades like a tornado on a trailer park the President is out on the trail earning new titles that further demean him and the office he took an oath to uphold. About to take a beating usually reserved for a redheaded stepchild the Dems have lashed out in desperation trying to divert attentiom from their failed economic policies and Marxist/Socialist agenda.
Our Political Hack, Maker of False and Unfounded Accusations, Say Anything the Truth be Damned-in-Chief is stooping to new lows trying to salvage something from the pending political calamity they are about to experience. Following President Washington’s example to aspire for the title “Character of an Honest Man” or something similar is as foreign of a concept to Mr Obama as capitalism, honor, integrity, American exceptionalism and the true meaning of the title Commander-in-Chief.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Weeks 89: The Exaggerated Presidency
“There are some people so addicted to exaggeration that they can't tell the truth without lying.”
Josh Billings, American Humorist
Rahm Emanuel, the profane hyper partisan ultra liberal Chief of Staff to our 44th President, turned in his resignation this week. The White House hatchet man plans to strong arm; intimidate; extort; bribe; and swindle his way into the epitome of dream jobs for a corrupt Illlinois politician, Mayor of Chicago.
Following the lead of three fellow left wing head cases and senior staffers, Peter Orszag, head of the Office of Management and Budget; Christina Romer, Chairwoman of Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers; and Larry Summers, the Director of the White House National Economic Council; Rahm “The Enforcer” Emanuel is the fourth close advisor to the President to jump ship right smack dab in the middle of the Obama Administrtion’s train wreck of a first term.
During one of our “Great Orator of Empty Rhetoric-In-Chief’s” multiple daily TV appearances this week he made the official announcement of Emanuel’s resignation and a thinly veiled endorsement of his Mayorial candidacy. The President then made several obligatory farewell remarks and turned the microphone over to his departing trusted advisor and political attack dog.
Uncharacteristically the famously caustic, abrasive and imposing Emanuel got extremely emotional and literally cried like a little girl when addressing the press. He went on to thank the President profusely and then made some of the most remarkable, historically incorrect, dishonest, and incredible exaggrerations ever uttered in the White House:
1. He congratulated the President for averting "the second great depression".
2. He then declared our mild mannered; intellectually eliite; academic egg head; policy wonk; pacifist; war protesting flower child of the sixties wannabe; advocate of a bend over, grab his ankles, thank you sir may I have another foreign policy was "the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced”.
After we all pick ourselves up off the floor, wipe the tears from our eyes, and stop laughing are collective happy asses off one more look at his second remark is certainly called for:
"…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced”.
For an Administration that has told more lies; created more fantastical crisis; deceived millions on multiple occasions; implemented a stealth and insedious propaganda campaign promoting their Marxist/Socialist agenda; arrogantly disregarded the will of the people the comment "…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced” just might be their most absurd, outrageous and gross exaggeration to date. It’s truly amazing this gang hasn’t all died from exhaustion from patting each other on their own backs.
As for his comment about averting the “next Great Deppresion” nothing more than silly, dillusional, arbitrary hyperbole not really worthy of further comment. However, Emanuel’s statement "…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced” demands a response to protect the honor and integrity of the Office and former Commander-in-Chiefs.
So Rahm and Barack think they have had a tough time. Following are some the challenges they have confronted:
-• Recession brought on by housing bubble and irresponsible lenders. Measures taken by W, TARP, averted the potential of another Depression. Actions by Obama have prolonged and deepened the economic downturn. Most likely intentional to advance their hidden agenda.
• Iraq War – Won by W. True to form Obama/Biden tried to take credit but even their adoring media elite press corps found this claim adsurd.
• Healthcare – Fabricated crisis.
• Energy – Fabricated crisis
• Global Warming – An unproven theory and another fabricated crisis.
• Nuclear Iran – Real threat totally mishandled by the Administration
• Afghanastan – Indecision and set withdrawl date smacks of weakness and lack of resolve.
• Gulf oil spill – Totally inept response and gross incompetence from day one.
• Their three most difficult challenges are probably muzzling VEEP Uncle Joe Biden. Keeping Hillary “Queen of the Order of the Butt Ugly Pants Suit Clan” Clinton safe from enemy sniper fire and also keeping all the tax cheats in his Cabinet and on his staff one step ahead of the jailer
For comparison purposes following is a listing of Presidents who confronted real crisis and truly tough times in stark contrast to the blatant exaggeration; total disrespect; intellectual dishonesty; and arrogance of Emanuel’s remarks:
George Washington
• Governed a fragile new nation deeply in debt from the war; still greatly divided over poltical issues; and a rebellious Congress understandably hostile and mistrustfull of a Central Government.
• Fully aware of the historical significance and establishment of precedents his Presidency was responsible for.
• Maintaining peace while literally surrounded by the likesof the British Empire, French, Spanish, and Native Americans all hell bent on making their claim to the New World.
• Eating with wooden teeth. Corn-on-the –cobb and Chinese take out in particular were a real bitch.
Thomas Jefferson
• Dealt with most of the same issues Washington confronted.
• Defeated the Federalist Party, the strong centrlal government crowd, leading to their ultimate demise and influencing politics in this Country to this day.
• More than doubled the geographic size of our new nation with the Louisana Purchase which was adamantly opposed by the Brits, Spanish and Native Americans.
• Keeping his illegitament children resulting fom multiple liaisons with hisown slave girls a secret.
Andrew Jackson
• A notable crisis during Jackson's period of office was the "Nullification Crisis", or "secession crisis," of 1828 – 1832. South Carolina basically decided to succeed and Jackson was forced to tell them what for if they carried out their threat.
• Jackson’s wife Racheal died right before he took office. He blamed political enemies who had called her a tramp and harlett during the campaign.
• The Jackson Administration ‘removed” tens of thousands of Native Americans west of Mississippi with more than half dying along the way. Came to be known as Trail of Tears.
• An expert shot refraining from dueling during his term of office was quite a challenge
Abe Lincoln
• The man freed milions of slaves, preserved the Union, and led the Yankees to victory in the War for Southern Independence
• Author and orator of some of the most profound and inspirational words ever spoken with unparralleled credabilty, conviction, and respect. The polar opposite of the empty suit morally bankrupt socialist revolutionary currently occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
• His biggist challlenge might have been keepen the Mrs’ from breaking the bank decorating the White House.
FDR
• A misguided domestic Socialist but brilliant war time President that played a large role saving the world from Nazi Facsist tyranical world domination.
• Rallied an apprehensive US populace to arms to lead the world in a global conflict pitting good vs. evil
• Promoted and aggressively advocted American exceptionalism
• Biggest challenge – keeping control of his wheelchair and not running down GOP Congressional members like dogs in the street after getting sideways on a few too many dry martinis
Harry Truman
• Sure enough quite possibly confronted with toughest challenge/ decision of all his predacessors and successors. Certainly in the running for one of the toughest decisions of all time by a world leader. Truman’s decision to drop two atomic bombs on Japan unltimately killing over one million changed the geopolitical military landscape permamently.
Emanuel’s claim Obama faces tougher decisions than Truman and these other esteemed gentlemem insults the integrity of the Office of the Presidency and diminishes the credability of any real accomplishments achieved by this bunch of insecure yahoos as few and far between as they may be.
Finally, each and every President starting with Truman and ending with Papa Bush were all confronted with what most folks with half a brain would consider a tough problem - a little conflict known as the Cold War. Thanks to his mostly courages pervious Commander-in-Chiefs who fought the tough fight; made the tough decision; and stood resolute and tough in the path of great adversity Mr Obama doesn’t have to worry 24/7 about mass mutual destruction with the former USSR
"….the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced.”
A statement so emblimatic of this Presidency – disrespectfull, decietful, factualyl challenged, insecure, dishonest, exaggerated, dillusionary. Just more of all that good ole change we all can believe in.

Weeks 89: The Exaggerated Presidency
“There are some people so addicted to exaggeration that they can't tell the truth without lying.”
Josh Billings, American Humorist
Rahm Emanuel, the profane hyper partisan ultra liberal Chief of Staff to our 44th President, turned in his resignation this week. The White House hatchet man plans to strong arm; intimidate; extort; bribe; and swindle his way into the epitome of dream jobs for a corrupt Illlinois politician, Mayor of Chicago.
Following the lead of three fellow left wing head cases and senior staffers, Peter Orszag, head of the Office of Management and Budget; Christina Romer, Chairwoman of Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers; and Larry Summers, the Director of the White House National Economic Council; Rahm “The Enforcer” Emanuel is the fourth close advisor to the President to jump ship right smack dab in the middle of the Obama Administrtion’s train wreck of a first term.
During one of our “Great Orator of Empty Rhetoric-In-Chief’s” multiple daily TV appearances this week he made the official announcement of Emanuel’s resignation and a thinly veiled endorsement of his Mayorial candidacy. The President then made several obligatory farewell remarks and turned the microphone over to his departing trusted advisor and political attack dog.
Uncharacteristically the famously caustic, abrasive and imposing Emanuel got extremely emotional and literally cried like a little girl when addressing the press. He went on to thank the President profusely and then made some of the most remarkable, historically incorrect, dishonest, and incredible exaggrerations ever uttered in the White House:
1. He congratulated the President for averting "the second great depression".
2. He then declared our mild mannered; intellectually eliite; academic egg head; policy wonk; pacifist; war protesting flower child of the sixties wannabe; advocate of a bend over, grab his ankles, thank you sir may I have another foreign policy was "the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced”.
After we all pick ourselves up off the floor, wipe the tears from our eyes, and stop laughing are collective happy asses off one more look at his second remark is certainly called for:
"…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced”.
For an Administration that has told more lies; created more fantastical crisis; deceived millions on multiple occasions; implemented a stealth and insedious propaganda campaign promoting their Marxist/Socialist agenda; arrogantly disregarded the will of the people the comment "…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced” just might be their most absurd, outrageous and gross exaggeration to date. It’s truly amazing this gang hasn’t all died from exhaustion from patting each other on their own backs.
As for his comment about averting the “next Great Deppresion” nothing more than silly, dillusional, arbitrary hyperbole not really worthy of further comment. However, Emanuel’s statement "…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced” demands a response to protect the honor and integrity of the Office and former Commander-in-Chiefs.
So Rahm and Barack think they have had a tough time. Following are some the challenges they have confronted:
-• Recession brought on by housing bubble and irresponsible lenders. Measures taken by W, TARP, averted the potential of another Depression. Actions by Obama have prolonged and deepened the economic downturn. Most likely intentional to advance their hidden agenda.
• Iraq War – Won by W. True to form Obama/Biden tried to take credit but even their adoring media elite press corps found this claim adsurd.
• Healthcare – Fabricated crisis.
• Energy – Fabricated crisis
• Global Warming – An unproven theory and another fabricated crisis.
• Nuclear Iran – Real threat totally mishandled by the Administration
• Afghanastan – Indecision and set withdrawl date smacks of weakness and lack of resolve.
• Gulf oil spill – Totally inept response and gross incompetence from day one.
• Their three most difficult challenges are probably muzzling VEEP Uncle Joe Biden. Keeping Hillary “Queen of the Order of the Butt Ugly Pants Suit Clan” Clinton safe from enemy sniper fire and also keeping all the tax cheats in his Cabinet and on his staff one step ahead of the jailer
For comparison purposes following is a listing of Presidents who confronted real crisis and truly tough times in stark contrast to the blatant exaggeration; total disrespect; intellectual dishonesty; and arrogance of Emanuel’s remarks:
George Washington
• Governed a fragile new nation deeply in debt from the war; still greatly divided over poltical issues; and a rebellious Congress understandably hostile and mistrustfull of a Central Government.
• Fully aware of the historical significance and establishment of precedents his Presidency was responsible for.
• Maintaining peace while literally surrounded by the likesof the British Empire, French, Spanish, and Native Americans all hell bent on making their claim to the New World.
• Eating with wooden teeth. Corn-on-the –cobb and Chinese take out in particular were a real bitch.
Thomas Jefferson
• Dealt with most of the same issues Washington confronted.
• Defeated the Federalist Party, the strong centrlal government crowd, leading to their ultimate demise and influencing politics in this Country to this day.
