Yes, obama has been successful on some things but he has lied to many to get what he wants.
He's actually been quite scandal free. Assuming all politicians fudge the truth as part of their job, Obama's probably on the low end of outright lies as compared to other presidents.
The stock market is not really an indicator of the market's important features such as job growth. It's been well overdue for a correction. Nothing to worry about.
The stock market is an early predictor of things to come, yes it was due for a correction just like the American economy which is being hurt by an over valued dollar. By early next year you will see a rise in unemployment and drop in GDP.

Obama, on a personal level, doesn't seem like a bad person. His policies and ideas are so bad it taints everything he does.

But they've worked. You might not like them in an ideal situation, but we were immersed in horrific failures from the prior administration in terms of the economy and foreign policy. Obama's ideas fixed those problems. They may not be the right ideas in 10 years, but they were good for when we needed them.

I've seen laypersons predicting a scary collapse since the day Obama took over. In reality, it's been a slow, steady improvement throughout, gaining momentum in recent years.
And the stock market actually doesn't predict, it responds. Otherwise, we'd have known the economic collapse of 07-08 was coming sooner than we did. I remember Bush was saying the fundamentals were strong up until he couldn't deny the failure of the markets anymore.

Wrong the stock market is the predictor of future employment gains or losses... look it up. The market falls unemployment rises and vice versa. Macroeconomics 201.Your posts prove you are just a partisan hackey - do.
I love all the bitter tin foil hat guys who've been waiting since March 2009 to say, "See I told you Obama was bad for the economy and the stock market!"
Yep, sorry but the Dow is up around 150% and the S&P 500 is up almost 200% still.

That is actually bush's fault.
