I think a more important question is "Has Obama done anything to earn your trust".

I did at one point. Now he seems to be going back on his word every other sentence, as well as the fact that it seems like he is too busy politicking and vacationing with his family than worry about the plight of the common man. These are just my opinions btw.

Yes, I do trust him to make right decisions but do not trust him blindly.

I wish the best for him.

Seriously? Something tells me you never actually trusted him if you actually believe what you wrote.

1. If he doesn't politick, he loses the message (as happened with health care). Hate to tell you this, but part of being a politician is politicking to build constiuency support for your proposals. The reason Bush failed was due in part to the fact that he retreated inside the Beltway and let his opposition define the message on a issues such as social security and war.

2. He takes one vacation and now suddenly he doesn't care about the common man? Come on. Do we need to mention Bush here? I didn't think so. Barack has accomplished more in his first 6 months than any president since FDR. You can't accuse him of doing too much (as many have) and then accuse him of taking too much time off. It's one or the other.


To answer the qeustion - I definitely trust Obama and he has increased my trust since being inaugurated because he's doing precisely what he said he was going to do during the campaign. I don't know what else one could want.

Fox News told me not to trust Obama. I don't know why, but since they told me, I guess I don't trust him.

Damn...it sucks being a mindless dupe. Why couldn't I be an intellectual thinker like the people who watch MSNBC?
