When people voted for Obama they were voting for change; and for most people that change was a change towards bi/non-partisan politics, for putting the interests of individuals ahead of the interest of corporations/unions/special interest groups, for fiscal responsibility and a move away from perpetual deficits, and a de-escalation of conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan. What people have seen from Obama’s presidency has been (basically) the complete opposite of what they voted for.
