Ya know here is my honest take on Obama - Decent speech tonight for starters and I think it came across as very sincere.... I think Obama is a good guy and has a good heart.. Very soft though..
I voted for Obama and here is how I rate him after 8 years -
He came into office and gave America a big boost, hope and change... I thought it was good thing to have a Black President as well, and I liked his hope slogan. He made decent promises of change and I was excited to see his promises come true.. These were the promises -
A) Remove Troops from the Middle East and Iraq
B) Obamacare - the promise of better and affordable healthcare for all
C) Hope and the promise to get us out of the recession
I was on board... I voted for him..
So, he got us out of the recession and at a cost in building our National debt up to 20 trillion.. Not cool...... He also promised a date to bring home the troops from Iraq and end the war, he did just that but prematurely and didn't handle it properly... Not cool... He created Obamacare but it didn't make heath care more affordable for all.. Not cool..
I also saw California turn into little Mexico during his 2 terms and that left a bitter taste in my mouth as that hit home.. He had no desire to enforce illegal immigration and stop the onslaught. Not cool..
Then came the Syrian refugee thing and that broke the camels back, I feel he influenced the European Countries in some way to take them in and now that completely back fired and people are dying from terrorism. This last year I believe Obama coasted in office and just brushed off all these terror attacks as no big deal.. JV team.. Couldn't even say Islamic terrorism, and then I was like it's time for this guy to go he sucks!!!..
SO I RATE OBAMA as a 6 on the scale of 1-10 honestly speaking as my President. He came on strong but finished really weak. Just to show that I keep an open mind I also rate George W as a 6 also....I'm simply not happy at all with our past 2 Presidents as they both had big major screw ups.. I think many Americans feel the same way... I think both were good people though that just did a bad job in the end..
So I vote for Trump now looking for new direction and change in these hard times.. I no longer call myself Independent either as I don't like what I'm seeing with Hillary and her wrap sheet, the DNC with Bernie, Democrat party is just kinda wrong right now IMO. .
That's it end of story...
I think many of you will agree with this assessment of our last 2 Presidents if you keep and open mind and neutral to both parties..
