I was like 8 when Clinton was president--and I didn't pay much attention to what he did at the time. I wouldn't consider him a great president, but he did his job. He wasn't a great president like JFK, FDR, Lincoln, and Washington..but like all presidents, they did what they were supposed to. Do you consider Bush a good president?

If Bush was for abortion, would you like him? I'm just assuming, since you have strong ties to your beliefs, that you wouldn't agree with him.
What did Clinton do that sickened you?

Lots of stuff(I love this song).the thing with Luinsky(Wont go into details).He wasnt a good leader at all.And if Bush was for abortion than I would assume he would also be for stuff I was against and I wouldnt like his beliefs or feelings.But I know he would never be for it,he is better than killing babies.

Clinton's affair was in his personal life, but it got into the public and it was made into a big deal. Plenty of people have affairs. That didn't stop him from being president. But sure, he wasn't a great president at all--he was nearly impeached.
I don't know Bush personally, so I couldn't tell you what his beliefs are. But I really don't understand why abortion is a big deal. According to most churches, there are no exceptions--abortion in un Christian-like. I dunno, it probably isn't just as simple as that.
Anyway, I just don't like the way Bush does things. I wouldn't consider him a bad president, but he wasn't a great one, either.

No he isnt the best,he has made mistakes.And I do care what the presidents beliefs are,that is what I go on.Clinton is for almost everything I am against,and the affair just proved it.And are you asking why abortion is a big deal?If so then AHHH!!!!Its murder.You are killing babys who cant defend themselves

Only one president has been Christian. The rest have all been protestants. I don't know what they believe in, but it's obviously not the same as Christian beliefs..since they aren't. Clinton and Bush are both protestants--so they don't believe in the same things as you might. As for Clinton against everything you are, I highly doubt that, since Clinton and Bush have fairly similar beliefs and ideas, as far as I know.

HA..I no that isnt true.Protestant is like Christian,similar beliefs.And I doubt Clinton was one.And out of curiosity who was the Christian?Cause I thought Washington,Lincoln,Kennedy,Adams,pretty much all of the older presidents were christians

Yes that is what I thought too. America was founded by Christans. That is the whole reason the pilgrams came to America so they could worship their God (which btw is my God) freely!

I beleive it was JFK who was the only Christian, I may be wrong though. I highly doubt that my Social Studies book would be wrong. Clinton, like every other president, was a protestant.

Well you know how school text books can be really wrong! I wouldn't have liked Bush if he was for abortion no. I highly doubt that Cliton was a christan. The things he was for what his life was like. NO I do not believe that Clinton was a christan. And yes the bill for No Child Left Behind. I don't like that. It leaves all of the kids who could excel but can't because there is one kid in the class that can't read. I mean that isn't right, but I do believe that Bush is a very good, upright christan man. And I am glad to have him as president!
