Tale Of Two Leaders

I thought it would be interesting to compare the strategies and effectiveness of two political leaders, in this case President Barack Obama with Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.
Obama's focus is on redistribution of wealth and income inequality. His support base consists mostly of Liberal Democrats, people on welfare and unions.
Walker's focus has been on diminishing the power of public sector unions and tax relief, his base support are middle and upper income conservatives.
In terms of achievements  Obama signed into law Obamacare.
Walker signed off on $100 million in property tax credits . He defeated a recall attempt spearheaded by unions.
Major problems include several scandals surrounding Obama and a growing level of mistrust in him and his administration.
 Walker is at war with public sector unions and he may be winning.
To my way of thinking Walker is a better leader.
