FBI Paid Upwards of $1.3 Million to Unlock San Bernardino Shooter's iPhone

Truth over time is pop culture.

Oh, and by the way, Obama has been amongst our least effective US Presidents. So much potential lost.

Alternative timeline...

John McCain gets elected... he dies while in office... Sarah Palin becomes president.



Seriously though... how much different would things have been under a McCain presidency? There's always something wrong with any president.

All law enforcement is dangerous. But especially the head of the FBI who is the lead man against Mafia, drug cartels, and other criminal elements in the USA. When you are responsible for taking down some of the most powerful and violent criminals you are a target.

Clearly you watch too many movies.

As a Canadian paying attention to American politics, it seems to me that the above is quite true, but in large part due to Congress' conscious efforts to block everything and not work in any way with Obama. I'm not trying to star any kind af a war here, but do Americans not see that side?

Entertaining for sure. Wonder who she would pick as her VP?

We do. However he had a majority when he took office and accomplished very little. Now, instead of driving to find even small solutions, he just stirs the pot by trying to place "executive decisions" that are likely unconstitutional and just add fuel to the current fire.
Personally, I feel what hurt him most is he has never been a factual leader before his presidency. Book learning is no replacement for actual experience.
