Bush- No Child Left Behind, democracy to Iraq, Afghanistan, relations w/ N. Korea, Chinese expansion, DHS, no attacks on US soil since 9/11, called the housing crisis in 2003, etc. Not bad to me. A lot of stuff is not credited to him b/c of the pansy liberal media and kids who want it now and cry when they can't afford an extra 50c for gas. Ever heard of the Greatest Generation? People have it so easy now. This current "crisis" is nowhere near the level of the G.D. So Bush may have made some mistakes but history will judge. Everyone else cam just hope for "miraculous" change...

 

 

Just to choose 1 item.. didn't no child left behind fail? I mean American Schools are still far behind...quite a few other countries.

 

Read this site: http://www.ed.gov/nclb/overview/importance/nclbworking.html for a good accountable DOE appraisal.  America still has much to do but it should be the kids who should step up, get their heads out of their asses, and learn.  You can pour trillions into ed. and still not improve anything if initiative is not taken by the ones responsible for thier future.  Personally, I would close the DOE.
