Unless one remembers that Obama inherited a country on the very edge of financial collapse due to the irresponsibility of the previous regime and the 1% with their tax breaks, and two unwinnable wars, one cannot discuss Obama with any intellectual honesty.

He did not get a clean slate, as you try to claim. And he got an opposition party who pledged to block any legislation he proposed, no matter how good it may be for the country. Signed a pledge to do that. The Party leadership made the members SIGN A PLEDGE.

As far as who you prefer, I know who it will be. Whoever they tell you to. And who are "they"?

“I pledge allegiance to the Slate of the Party of the Tea, and to the Banana Republic for which it stands, one oligarchy under God, with liberty and justice for the Chosen Few. Amen and hallelujah.”
