President Barack Obama, Oh my God, what's the fuss about? I can't quite understand why this man is constantly under the radar. If it's not about his given mixed ethnicities, it's about what he don't do that he should do to please either side. What was so wrong with him giving a back to school speech, and why was there so many controversal opinions for something previous presidents have done. I ddn't see nothing wrong with him encouraging students to stay in school and influencing them to get good grades. I didn't see it as propoganda and a way to persuade the youth to swing his way, like he was accused of. So what iF he appeared in over 100 television programs and on every network except the food channel, and so what if he appeared on 5 networks in one morning. He should not be compared to George Bush, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter or any other former president. His name is Barack Obama and I say let him do his job! He is trying to take a different more modern approach to persuade the consumers to buy into his heathcare proposal and other top imperative issues. He is either accused of doing too much for the wrong people or not doing enough for the right people. All Presidents have a responsibility to lead this country that's not satisfactory to all Americans yet suitable to all Americans.
When former president Bill Clinton proposed welfare reform some Americans and government officials were opposed and some were in favor of his proposition;therefore, you have the pros and the cons;those who agree and those who disagree. However, when it's all said and done a president's term is only for limited time-it's only temporaily! From one president to another changes are made, some for the better and some for the worse. All the president does is uphold the laws of thsi land and assist in enacting new laws, but he who has the upperhand is who has the final say-which happens to be CONGRESS!

As long as the Right Wing Media scream and distort, the protests against Obama's policies will seem bigger and more intense than they really are--until, unfortunately, those who are independent, or are undecided, WILL BE swayed, negatively, by the public emotion.
If Democrats don't learn how to fight back and, yes, to scream back, then they will LOSE! And Obama will LOSE!
That's how primitive this primitive game has become.....
beat them to it.
All of us who voted for President Obama need to make a lot of noise.
FAUX FOX News team, Glen Beck, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, wouldn't give one cent for their listeners.
They will continue to spread lies and misinformation to their hopelessly ignorant but noisy base.

Are you kidding? This REBELLIOUS nation of people would rather destroy than CREATE. They'd rather be divisive than come together in UNITY for solutions. I'm generalizing the whole, but there is a segment of people who are totally out of control.
I can't say that I agree with what has been going on lately. I do not agree that everybody with HIV should be allowed into this country, wherein that was banned in the past. WE have enough disease and foreign entities roaming around in this country as it is. I believe that the gates to the United States should be locked; this country should be cleaned up; and put in order. It should not be so easy to get into this country. And, that is not the fault of Obama. But lifting the ban on HIV cases (people) coming into this country would be his decision.
If President's had to live with their decisions in the White House first, before their decisions reached everyone else, I'm sure many of their decisions would not be made the way that they are made. . . .
i.e., if Bush had to send all of his relatives to war first over in Iraq, no one else would have went.
Good Article.
