It's pretty much established at this point. Obama will, without a doubt, go down in history as one of the worst presidents we've had. He already holds the record for adding the most money to the debt. In 2008 he promised our economy would be prosperous, he even said he'd try to make a North American union. But our economy has gotten so bad, that the government is actually talking about shutting down. Funny how the change he made was for the worst. Unemployment has never gotten below 7 percent while he was in office, and peaked at 10 percent under Obama. And it's not going down, it's fluctuating in the 7 percent mid range.
So you can defend Obama and blame someone who hasn't been in office for nearly six years, but the statistics and facts show that Obama is one of the least prosperous presidents we've had to date.

Nope. Obama isn't exactly great but he doesn't deserve to be grouped with people like George W. Bush and Herbert Hoover
-
I still dont get why the USA spends so much on military funding/research? It seems any government for the past two decades has continually spent retarded amounts of money on military
-
You can argue this for Obama or any president in the near future because they are inheriting a heap of problems that started with Bush.

Edited by Gruntzilla24: 9/29/2013 3:57:10 AMLets all keep in mind that Bush knew Al-Qaeda was going to attack the US months before 9/11 and did nothing about it. Then used 9/11 to attack a random country, steal their oil, and murder hundreds of thousands of civilians for a crime they didn't commit. Then he deregulated Wall Street, cut taxes for the rich, spent trillions of dollars on dead-end wars, weakened our workforce, and left the people behind during the housing bubble. Has Obama failed to dial-back the police state? Has he continued the war on drugs? Has he refused to hold the banks accountable? The answer to all of those questions is YES. But is he the WORST president in HISTORY? You'd literally have to be dumb or racist to believe that.

This is the least productive congress to date and while I don't like Obama because of his f*ck ups he isn't completely to blame.

What did Bush do that was so bad? He didn't say "I will reduce the debt by borrowing more money" or "all rich people are selfish and should pay for those who don't work"

4 RepliesEh. The president is just a figurehead. People should be concerned with our career congress that is greedy and cares not about the welfare of the people.

2 RepliesI agree but the masses love him or else he wouldn't have been elected a second time. One of the problems with America is that we don't seem to learn from our mistakes

8 RepliesWhy is it that the simple minded, regardless of party or whether they are supporting or against the president, think that the president is somehow the primary factor in what is done by the country? That would be Congress. Do you even American government?
