If it were not for a Bush administration, there would not be an Obama presidency

Each one of my letters to the editor was a snapshot of a moment on the trail passing through the Bush administration. Many of those letters were written out of outrage against the Bush administration’s policies. This type of mood grew into a movement in the US, which paved a new trail; that trail led to an Obama administration. In my opinion, If it were not for a Bush administration, there would not be an Obama presidency. My letters walk you through those moments of betrayal; that eerie silence in the media, voices of reason that were smothered out by a false sense of patriotism, hypocrisy, and arrogance. In one of my early letters to the editor, March 7, 2003, “A War That Should Not Be,” I mentioned that a core-democrat was needed. Because he put the country in such a mess and caused divisions in his own party, the inarticulate George Bush helped America get over the long phase of cowboy politics. A fresh, articulate, intelligent, core-democrat, Barack Obama, seized the moment.
