Yes - I should've put that in my post regarding the manufacturing jobs being most affected. You have to admit that the 2 administrations were/are operating under totally different circumstances. I didn't see any terrorists knocking on any American doors during Clintons administration.
Was 9/11 that long ago that we've all forgotten what happened to the economy afterwards? I would hate to think that some terrorists could be the reason that Kerry wins this election.
I'm not here to try and convince someone to vote one way or another.. that's like trying to convince someone to buy and chevy over a ford - just not going to happen.. and honestly I could care less what anyone votes. I have my views and yall can have yours.
Good day

I couldn't find any stats, but I think it's a safe bet that Dubya wasn't the first president to take office with a certain sector(s) suffering job losses.
If anyone has any stats on that, pleas post them.
