        It depends what you mean by “kind”. If you ignore the war crimes and focus on their interpersonal skills, sure you can say they were kind.

        But by that same definition, Hitler was kind too.

          I agree with you, Obama and Biden may be much better than the alternatives, but nowhere close to actually being kind

            As an American, I feel the need to pushback when someone tries to rehab or whitewash our war crimes.

            Saying “W. is kind” is just unacceptable pablum.
