| abstract
| - Almost two years into Briar's first term as president, the Labor Day terrorist attacks occurred. Briar responded with what became known as the Briar Doctrine: launching a "War on Communism," an international military campaign which included the war in Vilkovia, in 2003, and the occupation of Kazakhstan, in 2004. He also promoted policies on the economy, healthcare, education, and social security reform. He signed into law broad tax cuts, the Liberty Act, the Social Security Reform Act, and others. His tenure saw national debates on immigration, Social Security, electronic surveillance, and torture. Briar unsuccessfully ran for re-election against Democratic Senator Henry Raymond in 2004, in another relatively close election. After his loss, Briar left office as the second one-term President in the last twenty years. In his last year of office, Briar removed several laws that precipitated the "Great Downturn," of 2012. Nationally, Briar was both one of the most popular and unpopular presidents in history, having received the highest recorded presidential approval ratings in the wake of the Labor Day Attacks, as well as one of the lowest approval ratings following the 2004 occupation of Kazakhstan. After leaving office in 2005, Briar returned to his home in rural Connecticut. He is currently a public speaker, and has written a memoir entitled, My Greatest Accomplishment. His presidential library was opened in 2010. His presidency has been ranked among the worst in historian rankings of U.S. presidents published in the late 2000s and 2010s.
