If Putin is Hitler and Obama is Nixon (both elected in a year ending with 8 after a controversial war) will Obama be succeeded by a Carter or a Churchill??

Dude, don't be silly. The modern Hitler is clearly HERR MERKEL. No question about that.

Of course, Putin/Stalin and Merkel/Hitler are competing for their respective spheres of influence just like they were back in 1941. And of course, the global plutocracy is watching all this with glee and waiting to profit off the next war.

Was John Edwards the Hubert Humphrey of our time? Both of them are Democratic Senators turned presidential candidates who were  liberal icons and were known for their folksy images. What do you think??

Obumma is Chamberlain an is selling out Ukraine to Putin/Stalin/Hitler. We need Romney to be Chrchill and Taro Aso to be Chiang Kai Shek to fight both Putin/Stalin/Hitler and Xi Jinping/Hideki Tojo.
Also, we must protect the Gays/Otherkin/Jews from Putin/Stalin/Hitler.

Obama is basically just the Jackie Robinson of American politics.  As Robinson's numbers weren't all THAT great, we could have assumed he would be a mediocre president.

In many ways, Lincoln was the Nixon of his time. Elected as a minority president with a nation being torn asunder, he would work hard to incorporate both inter- and intra- party rivals into a broad coalition for re-election. As well, he would be known as a hawk in comparison to his re-election opponent. Neither finished out their second term due to their geese coming home to hatch, so to speak.

Guys, this is all wrong! You need to be doing it in comedically broken English, like "imagen if atlas foram modarn in the past". Like so:

obama am elected 8 madisn elected 8. mornoe = cristie era ov god feeling?

(Do I get a star for effort?)

This thread is just like that old thread where it was asked if the preceding poster was better than Stalin.

James Buchanan was an unpopular Democratic President, so was Jimmy Carter and Presdent Obama.  Will Chris Christie be the Next Lincoln/Reagan to save the nation from hardship?

Christie is more likely to be the next Taft. Wink

Merkel vs. Putin is Churchill vs. Hitler cause it's Fiscal Conservative vs. Social Conservative.
