Re: Obama the One Term President - February 24th 2010, 10:55 PM

I agree with the OP.
One of the major flaws I've seen with Obama is that he's too pig-headed to work -with- the people. For example: During the State of the Union address not long ago, he said that the Republicans in congress were, "Saying no just to say no." That congress doesn't work together as a team. Why does he think they're saying no just based on their political party? It seems to me that he doesn't see a problem with his "lovely plan" and everyone is just out to stop this "change" from happening.

I don't like Obama. I don't understand why people were so crazy about him to begin with. He promised this "change" yet has seemingly done nothing. When that's -all- you push for your campaign slogan, it creates a false sense of security, and people think that you're going to get things done. The flaw that I saw in his campaign was that he told you what he wanted to do, but never how. He never gave a timeline for how things would start happening.

Don't get me wrong, though. I didn't like ANY of the candidates from the past election, and I'm incredibly disappointed that it was the first election that I got to vote in and it was just terrible all around.
