My purpose was not to seek advice and then cast judgment on whether or not any will work. In fact, there have been a few posters with some very interesting ideas, however most were just posts to belittle Obama. These are the same folks who declare him stupid, incompetent, etc, yet when offered an opportunity to give some great insight into possible solutions, they're empty-handed (or should that be headed?).
OK...how about you pointing out the grain and not worry about the inevitable chaff. This is your thread and you asked a legitimate question, now it is time for you to answer the replies.
OP, interesting observation. I was thinking about this "unluckiness" yesterday. Its magnitude is unbelievable.
I am never a conspiracy theorist. I am in, fact, the opposite, that is, very naive about "plots." I usually have to have it thrown in my face before I can see a conspiracy.
But yesterday I was thinking that maybe, just maybe, there is a faction that despises Obama so much that they're somehow involved in invoking series of disasters to make it so overwhelming to manage that it appears Obama is incompetent.
I wonder if it's: 1) just the times and the way they are, i.e, coincidence; 2) his mismanagement and lack of leadership resulting in failures; 3) a conspiracy to oust him; or 4) something else.
I know this sounds crazy. But all these events have been a bit much over the past few years....
Am I just more sensitive to these events lately? Have things always been this bad and I just wasn't focused on them? Or are we experiencing a very disproportionate number of crises?

Can you point out the things that specifically lead you to these conclusions?

I deleted the rest of what you said as it doesn’t really deserve response..
But let’s be really clear. Obama is not facing any more than a dozen or more other Presidents have faced and Obama is doing a poor job standing up to the test.

I haven't "concluded" anything. But just thinking about the sheer number of crises got me wondering why these things are happening at the same time under this leader. Or have things always been this chaotic and I am just more sensitive to current events these days?
