Meni - there's more to the picture than meets the eye
Health care is a personal issue not a government issue - yes it's challenging if someone can not get adequate health care but funds should not come from my pocket for someone else's health care
We had a budget surplus in part due to an unprecedented economic boom (see Internet/technology boom of the late 90's)
Clinton happen to be fortunate enough to be President during those years, as Carter was unfortunate to be President during the oil crisis and resulting spiraling inflation of the late 70's (there were other factors)
Yes I am over simplifying but .....
That being said I have sincere reservations about Bush
But what's a better option
I'd love to see a strong, realistic 3rd party candidate (Not like the Dead Zone)
and I have concerns that our economy will be challenged, largely due to oil prices. Guess that comes with having lived through the 70's
