He could have lived
That would be worse. Hopefully he'll spend an eternity being confronted by all the soldiers killed and maimed by the war he helped to justify. He certainly wasn't the worst person in the Bush administration, but I honestly think if he protested and resigned rather than follow along that war could have been avoided. He was uniquely powerful and trusted at the time. He was in the running to be president and almost certainly would have done a better job than Obama.
I saw him give a speech once -- he was very charismatic. But like Obama, he'd break into black slang to make himself relatable.
On the the other hand, what about WMDs? How do you explain that? And giving Hillary advice about how to get around State Dept tracking of emails. Hmmmm.
I agree with you he would have been a better Prez than Obama. But the elites wouldn't trust him to do their bidding in all cases.
I never understood why people thought Obama was a good orator. To me he had a terrible slow halting way of speaking. He's the only person who I could speed youtube up to 2x and still feel like he was talking too slow. Most politicians are hard to understand at faster than 1.5x.
I never heard that he gave Bill's wife advise on getting around emails. I guess that's one more thing to hate about him.

Half of the population are retards. You have to talk slowly to them.
You were told he was a good orator. That's why he is one.
Wikileaks revealed the email that proved Powell's advice to Hillary. Until then Powell had denied it. But Hillary had already put her private server in place before Powell's advice.
He speaks well for a nigger, though. Doesn't grab his dick and say "sheeeeit" constantly.
I read something quite a while ago on Obama's oratory skills and the general smoke and mirrors of his image. I vaguely remember the piece mentioned that he would model his delivery and speaking patterns on Martin Luther King, or generally any other American black pastor-type personality where they throw in biblical vocabulary and associated vocal "tricks" to make it seem as if he was preaching to the flock rather than merely addressing the electorate. I can't remember the exact details, but I do remember the article stating that many of his major speeches leading up to his presidency and those he made after he'd secured the election were high on emotion and rhetoric but without actually presenting anything concrete. It was very interesting, I wish I'd saved the piece.
My mentally challenged neighbor who is 56 could have done a better job than Blowbama.
