Obama's the best president that country's seen in a long time IMO, but he's hamstrung by a lot of history. And he's a politician too ;)

Depends on what you mean by "a long time".
George W was an idiot, but I rated Clinton quite highly.

Out of the last few presidents I think I would rate them thus:-

1. Ronald Reagan
2. Bill Clinton
3. Jimmy Carter
4. George Bush Snr

Very last: George W Bush

If the American's don't re-elect Obama then god help them - and Iran !

I doubt many american military service veterans would agree with Carter as high as no.3, and Reagan was widely regarded as a lame duck president.

It's a toss up between Clinton and Bush Snr, IMO

Takei speaks on on Rebublican party ;)

He makes a very good point. IMO.
Low levels of government beurocracy and wasted spending should appeal to be, but they're such a bunch of right wing religious nutters at the moment, I couldn't vote for them (if I was an American citizen)

Typical politician, he gave a lot of promises and said "and you can take that to the bank," none of them were fulfilled and the banking system is crumbling.

Coincidence? I think not. :lol:
