    Absolutely not!

    He was a packaged political piece delivered to us by the media. He won on emotion, not merit (in my opinion).

     

    ^ This.  Plus it's very likely that he wasn't born in the US.  His birth certificate is most likely a phony, which makes him the biggest fraud in the history of the world.

    Let's talk about his policies, please. This feeds into a media stereotype.

  • The question was if we like Obama, not whether or not we like his policies.  I don't care about a media stereotype.  I do care that we possibly have a president who isn't eligible to serve as president and that neither party seems to care.

  • I like him.  I don't think he's been a terrible president at all.  He's done what he could with a horrific economy and a Congress that seems unwilling to work with him. 

    I don't think this country would be better if McCain had won in 2008.

    Agreed. And is there really a birther conspiracy theorist among us? ROFL

    Agreed. And if it's about personality, yes, I think he's cool, too. But I will vote for him because of what Fez said, not because I like him.

    You say that Congress was unwilling to work with him, but he had both houses for the whole first two years and couldn't even get a basic budget passed. That is just poor leadership.

    I don't see how it's poor leadership if Congress isn't willing to work with him.  He presented the budget to them, they rejected it.  Rinse and repeat.  Is Obama supposed to just step aside and let Congress decide on the budget entirely?  Is that better leadership?

    If Romney wins in Nov. but the Congress is majority Democrat, will you blame Romney if nothing gets passed?

    For Obama's first two years both the house and the senate were controlled by the democrata. So Obama was unable to get the support of his own party. Yes, I think that is poor leadership when you can't get your own party to do anything.

    If Romney has a Congress that is controlled by the Dems, that will be the direct opposite, so I don't understand your point.

  • Yes. Obama is the man.
  • Yes I do. I think he has done a good job so far with what he was left with by the previous president.
  • And for those questioning what he has done:

  • Yes, I like him. I think he has done a better job than can be expected considering the shiit that was left to him by Bush and the war.
