    Has obama done a good job as president?
    Did he only get elected 1st time round due to massive cash donations from Jay Z , Kanye and other Black celebs/business people?

    What has he actually done apart from being a nice man?

    Has the novelty worn off of having a black president?

    Serious question as I will be watching the coverage on Sky News tonight with interest.

      One vital thing he hasnt done that made those new legislation is to cut the deficit, somewhere down the road someone has to pay for it and the younger generation would get the burden. You can have all these new programs to support the masses but its not fiscally possible to sustain and doom for failure.

                He got elected because of the terrible job the admin did in the previous 8 years.
                He got elected because he spewed a whole bunch of shit. (no one in a lifetime could accomplish let alone 4 years)
                The last election was history in the making. The 1st black nominee.

                I feel he did a good job. It would've been better if he had help from the other (treasonous) party.

                There's no difference between these two candidates, except the one doesn't flop around.

                It's pretty bad the guy who flops around can't even win the state he came from.

                GL today on your political bets.

                  obama is as much white as he is black.

                  not sure why 1/2 black counts as black but that's the society we live in i guess

                    Honestly I think he could have done better. I would happily Support a "WHITE" candidate if he/she had similar views to mine. Put a black republican on the ticket with the same shit political ideology as WILLARD ROMNEY and I would spit on that ticket.

                        They're all criminals these days. It's about picking the lesser of two evils. To anybody who takes sports betting serious this is a no-brainer.

                              yeah it's crazy, i know people that "game the system" - if their kids are 1/2 or even 1/4 black, hispanic, puerto-rican, etc they check the box and get free college tuition, etc.

                                      If his second four match his first four he will most likely be considered one of the best. The best are always the guys that did the most for the people and O is always concerned with the people. If you check out his accomplishments like health care and student and veteran care you would know that.

                                        We have Reagan to thank for so many of today's gems.

                                        Big government and big business are in bed together today thanks to Reagan's policies. Deregulation under Reagan's watch led to a mess and then a counter-correction that took regulation too far. He was a disastrous president, yet he is lionized today by some. I've never understood that.

                                          No President can "succeed" given Congress, big business and a 24/7 media cycle. Fact.

                                            Just think if that fuk McCain would have won. We would be involved in ten different wars now. Romney is no different than McCain.

                                                      Analzying presidential performance is very complicated. The two biggest factors which make this task difficult are:

                                                      1) Our system of checks and balances limits the power of any one branch or person. While a good system for balancing power and influence, it often transforms and inhibits a President's true vision for our country. In exteme cases President's are stuck in gridlock and constant compromise, never able to achieve their agendas.

                                                      2) Another key in determing a President's legacy is the delayed impact of policies and decisions. These effects are two fold. Incoming Presidents are often forced to deal with issues such as tax structures, wars, or other policies which were determined by the exiting President.

                                                      Often the impact of the former President is felt for years after his departure, and it is a legacy which the incoming president must either fix or bask in the success. Furthermore, the policies and accomplishments of any President are not fully understood until years after he leaves office and his policies' impacts are able to manifest.
