I'm sure there is enough intellectual capital on this board to make the answer to these questins very broad, but I would like to keep it simple enough for a fifth grader to understand.
The economy is President Obama's fault because he took office and regardless what is going on a leader takes the blame. However, now that it appears the economy is getting somewhat better (e.g., companies returning jobs back to the U.S.), who takes the credit? Like I stated before, I know someone can trace something back to Lincoln's presidency, but does President Obama get the credit for things that improve while he is in office?
Also, if President Obama is not re-elected and the economy experiences a significant improvement in the first 90 days of the new President's term, who gets the credit?
