For example:
It was Harding and Coolidge's policies which got us into the Great Depression, and Hoover took the blame. The Great Depression prevented the US from getting involved in WWII right away, which led to us developing nuclear power, which led to the Cold War.
Truman got us into Korea, Eisenhower got us out, but meddled in the affairs in the Congo/Zaire; Kennedy and Johnson were the first to begin sending soldiers to Viet Nam. That crippled our military, and destroyed their morale, which led to the Carter adminstration-led attacks on terrorism to fail.
Reagan and Bush 41 attempted to use bin Ladin and Hussein to fight communism, which led to more terrorist attacks. Clinton did nothing to resolve the situation, and now we have Bush.
So how can everything be blamed on Bush? He's not perfect, by ANY stretch of the imagination...but is he to blame for the line of events that brought us to where we are?
