It's the last day in office for George Bush. There's been a lot of talk in the media lately about Bush's legacy. What do you think he will be most remembered for?
Bush will definitely be remembered for being unpopular and for being president during the mortgage crisis. What will really decide how he is viewed by future historians, though, will be determined by the outcome in Iraq. Regardless of the fact that we shouldn't be there and the major strategic failings of the war, if Iraq manages to turn into a bustling democracy years down the road, Bush will be looked at in a much more favorable light. I'm not optimistic about this outcome but I think it's possible.
