The question is, how many white people voted for Obama because he's black. They were under the assumption that this would be some giant leap forward. Ha! Shows skin color don't mean a thing, it's the character that matters, and Obammy don't have any. He's nothin more than a salesman.

At what you wanted? Don't you think your response is totally your opinion... what facts do you have to support this? He's not meeting your agenda?

We have been through Obama’s accomplishments and found he is a complete failure but what we haven’t discussed is (why is he a failure?)
The answer is multifaceted – many tentacles…
He HATES Capitalism. He even said when he ran for office he would bring “change we could believe in.” Naturally, he was talking to his constituents at the time, but he was also talking to our young impressionable youth who just happened to be educated in government schools that taught them the government would solve all their problems. I know quite a number of them and they still believe Obama will solve all the world’s problems.
He HATES Christianity. He spent twenty years in a (Hate America) church. Since Christianity is a religion of love his church was a religion of hate.
Since Obama hates Capitalism he must therefore love Communism and Marxism. Most of his so-called studies in College were centered around the communal theory. (Take everything away from the rich and distribute it to the poor.) Most thinking individuals will readily recognize the fallacies involved in that reasoning. With our president believing in a system that can not work we are facing a tremendous disaster of economic depression and total collapse of a great country. (Just look at Europe , Cuba and some of our countries in South America if you want to see what happens to Socialist enterprises.) They Fail!
Obama will fail with his economic plans because they also cannot work. Try to imagine a closed community where there are ten people but only two of the ten have an income. The ruler of the community and the rest live off of the two. The ruler takes money from the two and distributes it equally to the rest so they can live.
The two get tired of the system and move out of the community. I think you can see without further explanation what happens to the community. Obama’s plans to remove money from the rich will send the rich to other countries where they do not have to support the rest of us, thus—WE FAIL.
Another problem with Obama’s Marxism is the fact that removing money from the rich and distributing it to the poor does not stimulate the economy. So, not only is his scenario a failure in concept, it is a failure in reality.
It fails because it does not produce growth; it produces stagnation.

Obama is also a failure in his foreign policies because he does not truly understand the Jewish belief system. Because he is a Muslim sympathizer he leans toward their beliefs rather than those of the Jews. I am not saying he is wrong, believing in the Muslim religion, but I am saying he is wrong for not understanding the position of Israel in the conflict. It is too late to change Obama’s paradigm and therefore too late to repair the damage already done in his foreign relation’s department.
Why did Obama fail in the housing market?

The explanation is simple. When the democrats decided that all men should have equal opportunity to the American dream, that they should all be able to own a home; they passed laws forcing banks to lend monies to the indigent. Individuals who could not afford homes were given an opportunity to buy homes. This legislation passed while Obama was in the Senate and he supported the law forcing banks to loan the money or suffer severe penalties.
Theoretically, these loans would be guaranteed by Fannie and Freddie. I think we all know how that worked out. The problem is that neither Bush nor Obama rescinded the law and consequently, the banks, along with Fannie and Freddie went broke.
Obama decided to bail the banks out of their dilemma by forcing them to take loans from the feds. By causing certain mergers, he forced banks like BOA into near bankruptcy and put other banks out of business. All this was done so the federal government could take over the banking system. The only outcome of the government interfering with the banking system would be complete failure.
The fact that thousands of people defaulted on their mortgages and government interference with private enterprise brought the housing market down like a rock. This was indeed the reason for the failure of Obama’s stab at controlling a market much larger than the government.

Obama’s Obamacare will also fail.

It has nowhere to go. Even if the Supreme Court upholds his Obamacare as constitutional, it will fail because our economy can ill afford it. He can raise taxes and cut federal spending to the bone and his health care plan will still fail. It will fail because the American people do not have the financial resources to support it. We simply cannot pay for a fifteen trillion-dollar budget. We are currently over $100 trillion in unfunded debt—-WE ARE BANKRUPT! Plain and simple.
Obama is running his campaign against Congress. He is currently blaming Congress for his failures. However, that too will not help him. By blaming Congress for his inability to get things done he is saying that his democrats are unwilling to work with him. If the American people are that stupid then they deserve him for another term and they deserve the failure that awaits them.
Obama can’t get anything through Congress because that is the way our government works. There is nothing broken about Congress. Our founders set the government up so one man could not establish himself as KING. It is called Checks and Balances. We don’t want all like minds in our Congress and we do not want a KING. Obama thinks of himself as the world ruler but in reality he is nothing more than an inept fool with a lot of power.

Do you know something I don't know about Whitney's intelligence? Not really sure why you focused on that throw away comment.
