It seems that the American people are never quite sure what they will get when they elect a president. In the case of President Obama, liberals thought they were getting a healer, someone who could bring people together and solve the racial divide that existed.
Most conservatives thought that a former community organizer would not have the ideological bent to resolve anything that had to do with racial conflict, and it turns out that under Obama’s watch the nation has had more racial conflict and violence than at any time since the civil rights movement in the 1960’s, often with Obama in the middle of the conflict, stoking the flames.
He was going to have an open and transparent administration and let the people see and take part in the democratic process by making bills and decisions widely available so that it was clear who was moving the levers of power and how they would impact the populace.
It turns out that his administration has hidden the process of government from the very start, denying Freedom of Information requests and covering the tracks of federal agencies such as the State Department in the Bengazi debacle, the Justice Department in the Fast and Furious gun running scandal, and illegal actions taken by the IRS to deny conservative groups their non-profit status which may very well have altered the outcome of the 2012 presidential election.
But it is his absolute lack of leadership and understanding in the international arena that has been a shock to so many, both domestically and internationally. Obama came into office assuring voters that he would be a more mature, measured leader than George Bush had been, and crowds throughout the world cheered and looked forward to his coming years in office.
He claimed that he would meet with foreign leaders, and particularly Middle Eastern players, and find a path to peace rather than a road to war, and though he had no history or experience to show that he had those skills, the public accepted him at his word and looked forward to his leadership and success.

A total fraud and failure.
No sh*t. Glad you’ve caught up with the rest of us.
Obama had nothing to do with low gas prices either. That is due to directional drilling (fracking) that he tried to stop, and the fact that Saudi Arabia/OPEC decided to produce oil at a loss to put American oil producers out of business (which failed). Economics dictates that when supply increases without an increase in demand, prices fall.
Bwahaaahaaa! Luv it!
Ignorance is bliss!! Obama hasn’t created jobs either. The unemployment rate is down because people stop looking for what they can’t find and have become dependent on the government which is what Obama wants and is achieving. Total dependence on government!!!!
We the hardworking taxpayers get to foot the bill. How does that make you feel?
Impeach Obama
John you need to stop doing drugs. Just say no.
I’m so happy with Obama. He’s an awesome ma. Doing what he says and being open and honest. Republicans hate those qualities.
Another village idiot heard from!
Putin he’s in Turkey close to you, go get him . He needs to go under the DIRT .
