THEY JUST TAKE TURNS

If history was ever used as an indicator of who will be our next president, it would be obvious that Obama is destined to win the next election. Why is that, you might ask. The answer is simple, because THEY JUST TAKE TURNS!

Since the end of World War ll, when Harry S. Truman was president right up until the end of Bush's presidency, the democrats and republicans have just taken turns running the country. They each get 8 years to do it their way, then they must switch. There has been only one exception to this "rule" in the last 63 years. That is just as sophisticated as it gets. I know you thought there was a lot more to it, but there's not.

Let's take a look shall we?
