It would take a real achiever to diminish the office of the presidency even more than Obama has

And that was after Mr. Clinton did his part in diminishing the office of the presidency.

How soon we forget about Nixon, the worst of the bunch.

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Article is pretty accurate, but I feel the same way about people who voted for Obama in 2012. In fact, Obama is the reason why so many Conservatives support Trump.

If there was never an Obama people would still support the Clown. These same supporters think he won the debate.

There are many unanswered questions about Obama's actions, and if the answers to these questions ever see the light of day, his scandals could make Nixon look like a saint.

Here are some of them:

1. Why did the White house deliberately try to cover up the Benghazi attack?
2. Was the IRS instructed to target Tea Party organizations? Why did Lois Lerner plead the 5th?
3. Why did Obama seal the F&F records by executive order?

The MSM gave the Obama admin a free pass on these. If they would be as easy-going on Nixon as they were on Obama, he would have taken Watergate with him to the grave.

There are other interesting questions, but these are more consperacy-style:

1. Is it a coincidence that Obama's grandmother died the night before the 2008 elections?
2. Did Obama lie to Harvard that he was born in Kenya so that he could get accepted as a "foreign, diverse" student?

No coincidence.

He had her drugged, then killed so that she wouldn't reveal that he was born in Kenya

The only Nixonesque one is the IRS. If they connect that to Obama it will has very far reaching consequences.

From a sales newsletter I get:

Donald Trump's Amazing Sales Secret

Every election season, I contemplate going into the business of a
campaign manager or consultant.

Why?

Because political campaigns are years - no, decades - behind the
times when it comes to sales and marketing. Some are slowly
getting with the times, but they’re nowhere close yet.

Even basic things like configuring email servers to make sure a
candidate’s emails go into the inbox, not spam box, aren’t being
done. This is a 10-15 minute job that anyone with a basic
knowledge of email deliverability can do, and yet political
campaigns aren’t getting it done.

It frustrates me to see a candidate I like, sign up for his or
her email newsletter, only to have all the emails to go my spam
box.

However, one candidate’s emails not only arrive in the inbox but
appear to be whitelisted by email providers.

His name?

Donald J. Trump.

Trump is blowing away his competitors by a huge margin that
continues to expand, and it’s because he’s doing something
different.

He isn’t using pre-rehearsed talking points, he isn’t repeating
lines given to him by his handlers, and his speeches aren’t
written by speechwriters.

And he is the ONLY candidate who is doing this.

Meanwhile, everyone else in the field is letting a bunch of
outdated dinosaurs of campaign managers run their campaigns, and
it shows. If you ask them why they don’t differentiate, the way
Trump has, they will tell you, “This is the way it’s done,” or,
“That’s the way we’ve always done it.”

Sound familiar?

Let Donald Trump Explode Your Sales

Trump’s business advice has always been excellent, but it’s
observing his campaign strategy that really tells all - and can
help YOU to explode your sales.

Trump outright rejects the idea of “That’s how it’s supposed to
be done” or “That’s the way it’s always been done in politics.”

No. He is re-writing the rules of the game. And he’s winning
massively as a result.

Even if he doesn’t win the presidency, he’ll make tens of
millions of dollars from all this through books, TV shows, and
the like.

In the end, simply by rejecting the idea of “That’s how it’s
always been done,” and re-writing the rules, he will win in the
end, one way or another. He’ll either become president or he’ll
add untold millions to his fortune through the experience.

He has made himself the ONLY candidate running. The only thing anyone hears in the news is about him or how Hillary may go to jail.

Perhaps you mean that the possible IRS scandal is the only one that is similar to Nixon's alleged IRS crime.

If the truth ever comes out about Benghazi (and don't count on it), it can potentially be more damaging than the IRS scandal. Feel free to look this up yourself, but Someone told the CIA field team to stand down while the embassy was getting attacked. When the news came out, the same person or people tried to cover up the crime as something spontaneously sparked by a cheaply made YouTube video, and then had the filmmaker arrested.

I have never seen a president or administration that gets away with what Obama gets away with. The man can do whatever he feels like and he is untouchable because the MSM are his lapdogs.

That, while wrong and scandalous, is not something undermining the foundations of our government. They goofed and an ambassador died and they covered up. It was a coverup and I am not excusing that, but it does not directly affect most Americans. Sending the IRS after political opponents is the opposite of how the country is supposed to run. One of the highest ideals in this country is that there be no regulation of political speech. Punishing such speech undermines our entire form government.
