Actually..... god I hate that word, anyway

When the economy improves it will not be because of Obama but the people doing the work.
If he's still in office when it improves he'll try to take the credit

Giving 700 Billion to the banks was a mistake and he should have let them fail as to the decision was made in 1929-30

The bold predictions for a one term Obama are just so much bravado. Bush had already plundered the country into quite a hole in 2004 and re-election prospects looked bleak. Imagine how I felt the morning after the election. Now Republicans get their turn. This will be fun.

While I realize that your continued misuse of grammar and lack of punctuation makes you a poster child for "No Child Left Behind", I would ask did you also miss your classes in Economy and History? Do you have any idea what would have happened to this country and the world's financial systems if he had let them fail? You have thrown the word "depression" around without any true understanding of the actual events that took place in 1929 and through-out the 1930's. At least Google it so you seem semi-informed.

You don't get to re-write history. The bank bailout is on the record as a Bush decision. The car companies owe their bailout to Obama. That is how it is recorded.

To many people losing millions from the little guy up and where made as hell,

No way he'll get votes enough, there's a landslide as we speak away from him, even his own.
