Bush became president for his first term on 20 January 2001, the USD/Euro exchange rate on that date was 0.92. He was re-elected and started his second term on 20 January 2005 and the Euro was at 1.26 on that date. I fail to see how the dollar did not collapse under his watch (even after the latest rally which took it from 1.60 to 1.25) when at the start of his first presidency it was 0.92.
