Would you say that the stimulus was a intellectually sound decision or a political one. I think we are seeing that Obama is just what Hillary and biden described in the campaign;not ready for prime time. When he ge5ts off the talking poihnts he makes gaffs like the recent police incident. He is like having a recent business graduate running a multi billion dollar industry. Lost and totally dependent on people that have made too many gaffs.

I think that recent police incident thing, he was tired and blundered into it before he knew what he was saying. The fact that he makes gaffes means he's a human being.

It is refreshing to see an intellectual as president, compared to an ignorant, low IQ dumbass like Bush, I feel like we have made some progress and although I do not think Obama will be able to accomplish much in four years, he certainly challenged the status quo.


All things considered, I think some of his ideas are a bit radical but his presidency will be always remembered as a historic event. It gives me a lot of hope for the future of this nation and it would be cool having a Hispanic president elected in 2012.

Welcome to the future, America!
Yes, welcome to the future! It's an exciting time and I, too, am proud.
