a_wood80 (below) You speak as though the president is just a leaf blown by the winds of congress. That is until trying to give a president praise or ridicule, then, it is the president who has control.

No.
The stock market is not controlled by the President, it is controlled by a free market. Perhaps you have heard of the term "liberty?"
All federal spending bills begin in the House of Representatives. Perhaps you have heard of the "Constitution?"

a million) Hillary's election is a few distance from a definite element. i'm hoping it by no potential occurs. 2) Neocons are no longer destroying united statesa.. 3) Neocons are no longer good wing nuts. needless to say you don't be attentive to what a neocon is. 4) Neocons message isn't hate. 5) we would have not got any project with a woman as president if her call is Condi Rice.

No, the Harding and Coolidge administrations were prosperous after we got over the recession of 1920-21, which began under Wilson and had everything to do with our economy shifting from a war economy back to a peacetime economy.

What about Jimmy Carter's run away inflation? What about the 30's when FDR was president during the depression. What about the recession in 2000? Your pathetic partisan attacks on Republican presidents has no firm ground to stand on. Many democrat presidents were in office during an economic down turn. It's only natural.
Also your knowledge of the marketplace is quite limited. You seem to be under the impression that the market constantly goes up and never corrects itself. Instead of wasting all your time memorizing democrat talking points, why don't you spend some constructive time learning about economics and the market.

If so, Jimmy Carter was a Neocon. I remember inflation over 20%. Gold was over $800.
Not good times.
He allowed the Shah to be deposed and look what we have now in the middle East.
Yes, the Democrats always get it right......

It took Bill Clinton to clean up the mess caused by Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush (Bush '41). It will take another Democratic President to do the same; fortunately, it appears that America won't have long to wait.

No. Just when there's a democrat-controlled congress. Look at that: the people who write the budget dictate the economy.

9-11 caused some real financial problems - you can thank Clinton for paying more attention to Monica than Bin Laden and letting him run wild.
