The more I look back to the Dubya era - the more I am sort of amazed that in 2008 a super-militaristic GOP ghoul (or an equivalent dem ghoul) didn't become president. Drone strikes? Why bother? Just kill 'em all.
If Obama had never existed and Trump announced his campaign for president (either as a republican or dem) in 2007 could he have won?
In retrospect - Obama was a black swan who appeared and forced reality to go in a different direction from where the US was likely headed.
