Episode notes

Part 2 of 2: Daddy left unfinished business in the Middle East, so Bush 43 comes to the White House in 2001 with a mission, and whether he accomplished it or not really isn't up for debate -- he didn't. That didn't stop him though, and the damage he did in the White House made his successor's election seem like salvation may have arrived. Spoiler alert: it didn't. The White House is where altruism goes to die. And the first Black president in American history revealed something ugly in this country, paving the way for horrors to come. Part 2 of the Accelerants -- George "Dubya" Bush and Barack Obama.
