True, and even as a conservative, I think Bush was a terrible president. I'm just saying that both parties like to blame prior presidents for the current presidents failures. Carter was a bad president on his own merit.

Or he was just an idiot. An argument could be made that GW's failures were do to Clinton's poor policies.

That would be a weak argument.

I will agree with you. While I think Carter is a good man, he was a forgettable president.

Honestly, nothing ends well when one party runs the federal government. Our economy is best when you have a Reagan/ O'Neil or a Clinton/ Gingrich.

It would be. Clinton was an adequate president that got a boost from the tech boom. My problem is Dem's spend most of their time bashing Trump's character. Bill Clinton is as much or more of a scumbag than Trump.

U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller has a distinctly modern problem. The president, judging by his tweets, could try to pardon people in his circle even before prosecutors charge anyone with a crime.

Mueller’s all-star team of prosecutors, with expertise in money laundering and foreign bribery, has an answer to that. He’s Michael Dreeben, a bookish career government lawyer with more than 100 Supreme Court appearances under his belt.

Acting as Mueller’s top legal counsel, Dreeben has been researching past pardons and determining what, if any, limits exist, according to a person familiar with the matter. Dreeben’s broader brief is to make sure the special counsel’s prosecutorial moves are legally airtight. That could include anything from strategizing on novel interpretations of criminal law to making sure the recent search warrant on ex-campaign adviser Paul Manafort’s home would stand up to an appeal.
