The ideal president has the morals of Lincoln, the can do attitude of Washington, the heart for the people like Theodore Roosevelt, the economic mindset of Franklin Roosevelt, the abillity to bond like Kennedy and a way with words like Reagan.

"Listened to the people?" What about looking at the evidence and what it showed? Trials are not popularity contests, They're supposed to be based on facts and evidence not opinions
Yes. Clinton was actually doing what Republicans always claimed they would do, but never did any of it. He humiliated them in front of the whole country. But instead of accepting it and forging a relationship with the Democrats, they decided to become the enemy of the people.
Exactly. It started with the ruthlessness and ultimately fruitless Troopergate investigation in which Republicans coaxed, coerced and threatened people with jail time, to get the answers they want. They actually did throw a few people in jail on minor charges but said they were in jail for child related issues, and so obviously the poor inmates, who had done nothing but been convicted by Republican judges at the behest of Republican lawyers from Washington who went down to Arkansas at the start of Clinton's term, to try to dig up dirt on the President they despised. It just got worse and worse and almost through all of Clinton's presidency these jackals were hounding him, looking for the most minor of offenses which they could use to get him. Then it just got worse and worse. Heritage Foundation, Richard Melon Scaife (a billionaire in the node of the Koch brothers), and a host of other billionaires lied, cheated and stole. It's the same way they pushed people to vote for or support the Iraq War.
@@TyroneNorwood that maybe true , but I believe the fact that Obama got so popular so fast and the majority of republicans couldn’t accept it, and then Sarah Palin stocked up the race card that started up the tea party and then trump started the birther movement and then went on to drive the real craziness that we have today where if you repeat lies over and over again! Low information voters start to believe it to be the truth. Ala :the Deep state , pizza gate, great people on both sides, then stop the steal of Jan 6 , and then what the total hatred we have now. But yes it definitely started during the Clinton administration and then we have a cult like Maga and have to keep your political beliefs to yourself or else you lose friends and family! Even if trump loses he going to the dwindling number of maga cult going, this is a very important Election. In my opinion…
SEPT11 FDT PDT ETC WORKERS ALL MANKIND CAN YOU ACCEPT WE POLITIC WILL BE OUR LIVING LIFE FOREVER WORLD WIDE NATIONS ONLY USA AND SOVIET FOREVER ??? THANK YOU OLD EQ YOUNG FOREVER.
What the documentary doesn't say is that Britain (and to a lesser extent Russia) was also eyeing much of Mexico's territory as well for the Asia markets, etc.. (A larger British flotilla of ships stood off the coast of modern day California than American ships waiting for orders to take it) Polk was very concerned they were going to beat him to the punch.
The ideal president has the morals of Lincoln, the can do attitude of Washington, the heart for the people like Theodore Roosevelt, the economic mindset of Franklin Roosevelt, the abillity to bond like Kennedy and a way with words like Reagan.

I’m at 18:46 and predicting FDR is in this one
It is the last episode and he was already shown.
One wonders if the almost heroic words at the end of the documentary would have been spoken if the President's termhad ended in 2020.
"Listened to the people?" What about looking at the evidence and what it showed? Trials are not popularity contests, They're supposed to be based on facts and evidence not opinions
Yeah William Howar Taft
He should have won in 1912 and would have if not for the loser Theodore Roosevelt Jr.
the Tonkin Gulf incident...
of 1846.
the US has a habit of manufacturing "justifications" for war.
doesn't it.
I believe the gulf of Tonkin resolution was 1964 in the congress 🥴
ur thinking of Mexican war 1846-48👌
But the sentiment remains .. False Flag Operations have been used throughout history in order to garner public support for war..
For Wall Street 😊
@@familykaplan1341How was the Vietnam War (1955-1975) profitable for America?
Now I understand better how we got Trump and MAGA. This partisan politics started with Clinton.
Yes. Clinton was actually doing what Republicans always claimed they would do, but never did any of it. He humiliated them in front of the whole country. But instead of accepting it and forging a relationship with the Democrats, they decided to become the enemy of the people.
Exactly. It started with the ruthlessness and ultimately fruitless Troopergate investigation in which Republicans coaxed, coerced and threatened people with jail time, to get the answers they want.

Then it just got worse and worse. Heritage Foundation, Richard Melon Scaife (a billionaire in the node of the Koch brothers), and a host of other billionaires lied, cheated and stole.
It's the same way they pushed people to vote for or support the Iraq War.
As if dead-on-arrival bills in the '80s were not a thing.

The balance of power or the abuse of power?
