the world for the better. It has been buried under so much GOP bull****. But it will come out how very brilliant and kind they were to all Americans some day soon. I mean more than we know now. I mean already they are saying that the prison population went way down under Obama. That is huge. Think how great that is for growth of the economy and for families. I look forward to their next 50 years of leadership.
