There is no middle of the road selection so I did choose failure because it is certainly not a success. He is not focused on what is important. Health-care right now is NOT the top issue or should not be. Get people back to work and they will HAVE insurance. I don't think he is a stupid man but not focused at all. He is all over the map.
Considering that Obama pulled our nation back from the brink of the financial abyss(and history will credit him with that as well) I give Obama a B/B-. I am fairly happy with the job that he is doing.
I don't feel that any previous president has had people openly hoping for his "failure" (and thus the failure of this nation) with the exception of maybe Lincoln.
And I believe that those who "hate" Obama have so very much in common with those who despised Lincoln - history will also judge them just as harshly as segregationists during the civil rights movement of the 50s/60s are viewed. The Tea Party Movement will be fairly notated in future history books as the villains of the Obama presidency.
The Tea party is standing up to Wall street too. These bailouts for the wealthy which are creating moral hazard and are killing the free market system. So far Obama like Bush won't stand up to these criminals. he talks tough but not much action.

Are you for a more regulated or completely unregulated market?

The main thrust of the Tea Party Movement is not anti-Wall Street/anti-big business it is anti-Obama.
These people didn't make an effort to protest Wall Street/Gov't spending/Iraq War deficit under the Bush administration. These protests started on day one of the Obama presidency and are infested with bigotry.
If you have no problem with the way you are taxed now it's obvious you are not a buisness owner. Also my parents sent me to school with no help from the government. I think there is a good chance I am older than you.
Glad your parents could help you out like that. What does age have to do with any of this?
It's hard to rate this administration's domestic achievements because it hasn't accomplished much there. The administration has done more in foreign policy, but not much more.
But I rate Obama, individually, very highly. I like his demeanor in the office - cool and collected - it's refreshing considering the last 16 years of rash decisions.
Will I still like it after 4 years? I don't know.
