Are there plans afoot to move the capitol to another location?
If not, he will still be at 1600 Penn. Ave.

Obama will be a two term President because Republicans (especially the base, which is Right Wing Radical Christian fundamentalist) are too bigoted and divided to ever vote for.....

1) a Mormon

2) an Indian-American (too dark and maybe a "muslim")

3) a Southern Baptist preacher who had a knack for releasing criminals on parole who ended up molesting children and killing police officers

4) a woman who quits her office as governor to get "paid" and gets up on her preachy moral high horse about "family values" yet can't even govern her own or prevent her own unwed teen daughter from getting knocked up

5) a flandering candidate whose sole claim to fame is that he was mayor of NYC during the tragedy of 9/11


So I say 2012 looks really good for President Obama

I agree with that. He is certainly being hurt by the oil spill and the perception that he is not doing what is needed. But those complaints are from people quick to criticize, yet have no idea what could be done differently. In 2012, why would anyone think, any Repub would work at regulation and oversight of large business? Who knows from what Industry, the next Corporate time bomb is coming? Who is more likely to put controls on large business? Frankly, it's Obama, certainly no Repub.

I don't know if Chicago will want him. He will probably go to some den of liberalism, like San Fran or New York, where they will idolize him despite his failures.

Nope Chicago don't want him... as it is we will be getting rid of King Daley, we don't need Obama back either... Chicago is working on a change for the better finally.

So I say 2012 looks really good for President Obama

The big difference between any of those candidates and Obama is-

1. They did not run up a $13 trillion debt (it will be $16 trillion at election time)

2. They did not pass Obamacare, which 58% of US citizens want repealed before it even goes into effect

3. They did not run up unemployment to 10%

4. They did not preside over a stock market fall

5. They did not respond to the gulf oil spill in a belated, incompetent fashion

6. They did not cozy up to the Nation of Islam on Memorial Day

7. They did not violate federal law and try to influence US senate races

8. They did alienate our allies and cozy up to our enemies, who still hate us

9. They did not endorse rampant spending at a deficit of $1 trillion per year

10. They did not order a $1 trillion dollar failed stimulus package

11. They did not preside over the greatest foreclosure rate in US history

12. They did not fail to distribute capital, through increased bank and loan restrictions and regulations which are strangling small buisness

13. They did not raise taxes on small buisness

14. They did not cut $500 billion from medicare to pay for Obamacare



It appears as though simply "not being Obama" will win the election. I would guess that Jack the Ripper or Ted Bundy could probably beat him, as they only destroyed individuals, not entire nations.
