Bam's biggest mistake to date is failing to remind our country EVERY SINGLE DAY WHY WE ARE IN THIS MESS TODAY! Failing to REMIND the entire nation 24/7 WHY after 14 straight years of Republican Control of Congress, 8 straight years of Republican control of the Presidency, 14 straight years of having Majority of Governors being Republican- THEY LEFT our nation in 2008 with the .............

WORSE ECONOMY IN 70 YEARS
CAME INTO OFFICE IN 2000 WITH A SURPLUS, LEFT OFFICE IN 2008 WITH THE LARGEST DEFICIT IN US HISTORY
WORSE ECONOMIC QUARTER in 3rd quarter of 2008 since the great depressione
THE LARGEST SPENDING & THE LARGEST DEFICIT EVER OF ANY ADMINISTRATION IN US HISTORY
LEFT THE COUNTRY IN 2008 WITH 9% UNEMPLOYMENT & RISING
ALLOWED OUR NATION TO BE HIT WITH THE WORST EVER TERRORIST ATTACK IN US SOIL IN
SEPTEMBER 2001 ( Yes Folks, Republican President Bush , Republican Governor George Pataki, Republican Mayor Rudy Guiliani were ALL in FULL CONTROL of the NATION, THE STATE OF NY, and the City of NY - You got to keep reminding people lol)

KEEP REMINDING PEOPLE OF HOW AMERICA WAS UNDER THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!

AMEN !!! Obama Obama Obama!

P.S. There's a reason Obama won Voters with College Degrees by a landslide. There's a reason Obama won Voters with a Masters Degree & PHD by a landslide. There's a reason Obama Won voters making $150K and higher by a landslide!!! There's a Reason Obama won by a landslide AMONG THE TWO WEALTHIEST ETHNIC group in America- Jews & Asian- Americans.

These people don't listen to High School dropouts like Rush Limbaugh & Sean Hannity! NOPE!!!

Obama's biggest mistake was not trying to crush and eradicate the Republicans. What this country needs is one extremely strong party to govern. Obama and democrat party is the only solution to this mess that was created by years of Republican governance.

Look at Singapore's one-party state system and how well they are doing in this recession. Sound fiscal management and one of the highest per capita GDP's in the world.

Obama's policies have not helped, but the pattern was set by Bush.

The Gini coefficient of the US has increased as that of Brazil has declined, and the US and Brazil are fast approaching convergence regarding the level of economic inequality. It is not hard to see the US being more economically unequal than Brazil in 10 years if current trends continue. Gore Vidal thinks that the future of the US is "somewhere between Brazil and Argentina".

The term "third world" specifically refers to political alliances during the Cold War. The current term is "developing country" or "middle income country".

I also fear that if BO loses the 2012 election, we will see the worst rioting in our streets we have ever seen with screaming of "racist" thrown out. If and when that happens I will remind all that when a white person loses an election for President, that has never happened. Hope I'm wrong, but...
Obviously not familiar with 19th century Presidential elections.

In particular, the 1860 election - what followed that was much worse than just rioting. The riots in San Francisco were the least of the violence that occurred after Lincoln's victory.

There was also rioting after Presidential elections in the 1830s, 1840s, and 1850s, although nothing as severe as 1860.

And rioting after state and local elections was prevalent throughout the 19th century, into the early 20th century.

All the candidates in said elections were white, btw.

It would be more enlightening to ask: what did Mr. Obama do that secured the inalienable rights of the American people?
What did he do to secure our right to absolutely own ourselves, our labor and our property?
What did he do to secure our natural and personal liberty?

I can find nothing but the opposite.
I find that he espouses "sharing the wealth" - taken by force of government - a denial of one's right to own.
I find that he espouses "social justice" and "compulsory labor for the benefit of another" - which is slavery, and a denial of liberty.

Perhaps he wants a different nation than the one created in 1776.
He certainly has no respect for constitutional limitations on power.
Pity.

The Prez repeated attempts at compromise/bipartisanship in his first 10 months in office. I would say was his biggest mistake. It took him repeated rejections, heartache, embarassment to Finally realize that the Republican Party leaders Already Made the Decision from Day One that they WILL NOT be a part of any program, reform, legislation that will make Prez Obama look good or take credit.

The Republicans really took the " PARTY OF NO" to the highest level.

What I find amazing is comments from others who IMPATIENTLY DEMAND - " Why hasn't the Economy Recovered? Obama's programs failed? Obama does not know what he is doing? blah blah blah

Where were these people during the McCain Vs. Obama campaign of 2008 ?

When practically ALL so called Top Financial Experts, Top Economists including All american Economic Nobel Prize Winners PREDICTED in UNISON that the Next Prez, whether Obama or McCain WOULD FACE the TOUGHEST & LONGEST RECOVERY since the 1930's. Many even warned of a LOST economic decade like Japan.

With all that said, any Normal person with some degree of intelligence would fully understand that No Politician, No Administration would be able to turn this crap around in 15 months. There are no guarantees that it would even happen in 24 months.

You think McCain & his advisors would have turned this around??? How can he turn this around when he was a MAJOR part of why we are here. His team, his political party were a major reason for where we are now.

What is hilarious is that 90% of people who loudly Scream, Attack, Yell, Criticize Obama are the same people, the same Voters who DID NOT, I repeat DID NOT vote for Obama in the first place !!! LoL!

These are the same people who blindly supported politicians who got us to the near collapse of the entire economy in 2008.

That question is the political equivalent of asking a die hard Beatles or Stones fan what their favorite song is.
