Well, Is it possible the US Presidency has become more of a figurehead position? Remember when Presidents used to be Generals? Now they are lawyers and failed businessmen. It says alot about how this nation has been handled recently.
i partially agree. but lincoln was a lawyer, not a general. jefferson was no general. some of our greatest leaders where never generals, heck reagan is widely considered one of our greatest and yet he was an actor. but it does say alot about our country when our president has never actually held a real paying job. when our president had so much ego that he decided to run for president not even 2 yrs into his 1st term in the senate which was for all intents and purposes his 1st possition of any govt possition.
you know one thing that got me, the night he was swarn in there where parties in the street like none before him, and a common chant "my presidents black". this says a lot about our nation. this man was not ellected on his merits, on his education, on his ability to lead, he was ellected on the color of his skin.

Reagan was in the Army and an Officer, didn't serve in Combat, but knew the structure of the Military. Lincoln was also in the Military, as was Jefferson during the Revolutionary war just didn't wear a uniform, but had the British caught him, they would have hanged him for his actions.
You are plain & simple pi**ed that the public likes the current president. No other reason other than that.
I'm not speaking for the poster you responded to...
Still...I think it's great the American public likes a president.
I just think they are now deluded. Be it his youth or blackness or hatered of Bush. And the press that usually is an ally for truth is simillarly deluded.
I'm not a fan of Barry. I think he is a fraud. I'm sure it will come out and a lot of fans of Barry are going to be sad.
Oh I see, so only right wingers know what's going on in the world. Ok, got it.
i think you missed the point. i would say that the "huddeled masses" thta voted obama into office (this doesnt include everyone) are/where very uninformed.
i am a huge nba fan (i come from san antonio what can i say) and so i am a member of a couple nba fan sites. you would be AMAZED at how uninformed those suporters are.

What an excellent example of the right's attempt to generalize all democrats. NBA has what to do w/this?
Country in recession, GM declaring bankrupcy, millions have lost their jobs, millions struggling to pay their bills and keep their houses, obama spending trillions that we can't afford - "Everyone's going to have to give. Everyone's going to have to have some skin in the game." So says Obama.
Except of course for he and his wife. That's really the priority for obama - to be seen and admired. Disgusting, completely out of touch with reality.
Everything you mentioned above thank George Bush for it not Obama, he walked right in the middle of that mess!!!!!!!
He is once again THE GOD DAMN PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES if he wants to eat steak for breakfast, lunch and dinner 365 days a year he may!!!!
He is a FAMILY MAN... HE HAS A WIFE AND KIDS... Just because he is now the PRESIDENT doesn't mean he now doesnt' go out for dinners and tries to lead a normal life like he did before....
Eveything he does or doesn't do is wrong. But Bush is the reason we are in the position we are in today!!!!!!

Speaking of uninformed, you need to actually watch that video. Nowhere does anyone say that Obama is going to pay for her gas and mortgage.
"I don't have to worry..." does not equal "Obama is going to pay..."
