I did fear Obama, and as it turned out, with good reason. Ask anyone who lived in a stable Iraq on the day he took office.
I agree on the Trump campaign, it's a farce. I cannot believe that of all people, Ben Carsomn hitched his wagon to Trump's star. I really can't believe it.

I have spoken to many. Many, many, many.
On Bush's first day, the average Iraqi was ruled by a brutal dictator, who used chemical weaponds against the people he was supposed to be serving. On the day Bush left, Iraq was stable, and had held open, free elctions, where the radical Islamic candidates consistently lost their elections. It took a lot to get there, and one can argue it wasn't worth it. But the nation of Iraq (as a whole) was a better place in 2008 than it was in 2001. If you disagree, I'd be curious to know, based on what you disagree?
Obama inherited a stable Iraq. It's a fact. He chose not to get a SOF agreement, so he pulled everyone out (against the advice of many), and that was a disaster. I don't know anyone who disagrees that Obama's handling of the Middle East, and Iraq in particular, has been a disaster (other than Spence, naturally).

He inherited the illusion of a stable Iraq, an illusion set by the de-bathification strategy set by Bush.
I think the hard part is that Obama for good or bad has really inherited several global mega-trends that are nearly impossible to control. We can influence and shape but they have to play out on their own.

The American people elected an illusion of a president

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
