Why does everyone think GWB is an idiot? He was an amazingly effective politician who managed to win two presidential elections. The fact that the things that he very successfully accomplished were horrific for the country in general doesn't mean that he was an idiot; America would be much better off if he had actually been an idiot, as he wouldn't have been able to do as many bad things so effectively.

He won one presidential election.

It's mainly his simple demeanor, gaffes like MISSION ACCOMPLISHED and almost choking to death on a loving pretzel, and the popular public perception that Dick Cheney was actually in charge and pulling the strings from the shadows. Although a lot of his political accomplishments can be credited to Daddy Bush's Men like Karl Rove, he is definitely a lot more competent than people think, you're right.

he was an effective politician who put dick cheney as his successor so no one got any ideas about him like they did on Reagan

In early 2006 George Bluth visited Stan Sitwell to sell him his remaining shares of the Bluth Company but Stan refused, bragging about a project that would make him bigger than Halliburton Teen. George photographed blueprints and Lucille told him they were plans to build a wall between the United States and Mexico.

Because he's a generally competent doctor seeking work in a field for which he's woefully under-qualified, for no good reason. And also, he is black.

In recent days, Jeb Bush has decided to focus his campaign on Iraq. Earlier this week he pinned the blame for the current instability in the country on Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Speaking at a national security forum yesterday in Iowa, Jeb Bush asserted that “taking out Saddam Hussein turned out to be a pretty good deal.”
It only went downhill from there for Jeb!

What does this dumb gently caress expect is going to happen that changes anything in the next few months. He's polling 6-8% and we're less than 4 months from voting. Everyone hates him, he loses one-on-one with Trump, and every day he creates more and more tape and copy that will destroy him in a campaign against a democrat. I mean, in the last week he's on record saying that mass shootings are the equivalent of pooping while running, and that race has no correlation with poverty rates or social mobility.
