Obama says Bush using "social darwinism"
At a Communications Workers of America conference in Washington, Obama said that the Bush administration was practicing "social darwinism" preventing the prosperity of all Americans.
"It's a strategy that we've seen this administration pursue over the last six years, that basically says government has no role to play in making sure that America is prosperous for all people and not just some," he said.
