A Presidential legacy is comprised of laws passed , wars waged or unwaged, policies, & appointments |

Honestly, that is all I care about. When all is said and done, that is all history cares about.
Everything else is just window dressing.

But what wins elections is panache, style, and good speech writers, and of course the promising of "ponies" to all. Let us not forget that laws passed, and policies and appointments, are trivial to the TMZ voter.

It doesn't matter how much anyone "likes" someone. What endures is not their niceness, but their laws.
