No president can perform miracles.
In his second press conference, President Obama acted as the nation's chief counselor--as well as its commander in chief. He spoke of the virtues of patience. He cautioned that there are no silver bullets, quick fixes or easy ways out of this deepening recession. There will be bumps on the road. But he also spoke of recovery with a "renewed sense of common purpose, a renewed determination, and most importantly, a renewed confidence that a better day will come."
After a week of righteous anger about Wall Street greed and bonuses, President Obama confronted the challenge of putting budgets and bailouts into a human context for people. Did he sell the idea that helping banks is about helping people, as he'd told us in his first address to Congress last month? Not clearly enough. But the President did make the case for the importance of passing his budget which, even with its flaws, is an audacious plan to transform America. If passed, it will mark a new era of progressive governance.
Basically what he did was go back to wall street because he had to get someone who knew what they were doing. Now he is turning to business leaders as he has to have them as his budegt is in trouble even in his own party, All president come to the realities and learb that politcs is stil teh art of compromise. You don't get anyhting doe successfully by blame the peole you need so much. The maddening crowd is made up of peopewho only want somthig from you ;not those that can actaully do much.
