There's been a socialist in the White House for the last eight years. Truth be told, if you look at the policies of the Bush 2, Clinton and Bush 1 administrations, there's been a semi-socialist or socialist is the White House for more than quarter a century. Congress brought us the Contract with America that Bill Clinton reluctantly signed, and that brought some great economic growth in the 1990s (bolstered by Reagan's reorganization of the tax code), but that was all wiped out by Bush 2 and Obama. You really should actually study some economic history, Mr. Wicks.
