Never did I imply that. Obama had wrong right ideas when he started, je waas right in many ways. Unfortunately he also had a massive economical burden tacked on his back and the wrong skin coulour for Americans. Tie that with a republican party that essentially refused to do any work in Congress for years (easy to understand as they can only win the next term if the economy stays bad). The inability of Obama to react to criticism added to the situation we have now in the States. Disfunctional politicians everywhere and tons of right wing nuts - it's just interesting to watch as an outsider. |
Plenty of "nuts" on both sides of the aisle.
"Lastly, I'm still amazed that the race still is open. With the economic situation (and the short attention span of the average american) , it should be easy for _anyone_ to beat Obama."
I apologize if you did not intend to imply that Obama was detrimental, but the above quotation is what resulted in my conclusion.
Don't let the media fool you, neither side has been budging on issues in Congress. The president has still not passed a single budget while in office.
Obama has few good ideas, but ideas don't help us. Actions do. Legislation does. Compromise does.
