If you could answer this question with ONE answer, why do you think Obama is a bad president?

I'm not asking about birth certificates or antidemocratic in general, what is the one reason you find him to be a bad president?

Update:

Michael and DAR....you do realize Obama is a constitutional scholar?

Update 2:

When one inherates a debt of unimaginable proportions, how should he resolve that dilemma?

Update 3:

Val....please review what he handed down from Bush. If you are anti-socialist, please burn your mothers social security card, medicare card and let me know howw she survives.

Update 4:

Jacob....your answer is very vague and off point. please feel free to email me with a detailed answer.

Update 5:

Ruby Tuesday....He owes them greedy bankers nothing. Please read up on the history of how he worked to become president. If he were in a "Wallers" pocket, you don't think it would have been common knowledge by now? Many have spent the past 3 years or so trying to dig up dirt, if any, in order to discredit Obama. The best they could come up with was rev. Wright. Come on, chill...relax....there is no conspiracy here.

Update 6:

DAR...email me please.

    He thinks his desires are more important than following the Constituitonal limits on government.

    -

    christine... he was a lecturer, not a scholar. And his talks on the Constitution were how it was limited in that it didn't provide for redistribution of wealth. And since you don't need to be a scholar to read the Constitution, why don't you do that and compare it to his new financial regulation scheme, his sellout at the G20, his stimulus bill, his takeover of the auto companies, etc etc etc?

    And one certainly doesn't solve debt by entering into more debt faster than any other president in history.

    Because he owes a debt to the Wall Street Bankers and the corporate elite. They put him where he is.

    @Christine. Go look up the campaign contributions. They are a matter of public record. President Obama received more campaign contribution from Wall Street than any president in history. A debt is owed. You don't seem naive - surely you understand that those contributions were not made merely for the public good, and certainly not because the wall Wall Street crowd subscribes to principles compatible with the Democratic Party.

    Health care. His idea of how to address the problem of out of control health care costs are bassackwards. Simply covering millions of people without doing anything to address the root causes of the costs won't resolve anything. It will only build mountains of debt that we can't afford. The issue could more readily be resolved through legislation and regulation without having the government move deeper into the health care business. The failing Medicare and Medicaid systems are living proof that they're not any more efficient at it than the private sector.

    Foreign policy. He may want to be buds with the rest of the world, and that's an admirable wish. It is, however, a pipedream. Wanting everyone to play nice and sucking up won't make it so. Jimmy Carter is living proof of that.

  • He is a spineless socialist who just wants everyone to get along instead of defending our country! North Korea and Iran are bearing down on us and all he does is discontinue the F-22 Raptor, downsize our missile defense program and goes around the world apologizing to everyone saying everything is Americas fault and proclaiming the evils of capitalism! This man is a joke!

    The massive expansion of government, well beyond its Constitutional limits, and unconscionable spending plans for a nation already $11.5 trillion in debt.

    nicely to declare what i might do for each and each subject remember it would take invariably. however if, to restoration the financial gadget i might have carried out 3 issues, decrease taxes on actual everybody, yet rather small agencies, which might motivate agencies to hire those with the money they saved on taxes and those human beings might spend a number of the money they make which might stimulate the financial gadget. Then i might bypass by way of each and all the money (the funds) and take out something that substitute into no longer necessary (like worldwide warming funds) with however funds I have been given from that i might stick to some to repaying a number of our debt and something might bypass in direction of classes that no longer in basic terms benefit the country if greater jobs are created (protection spending, decision gasoline examine, etc...) This no longer in basic terms makes the country greater secure and closer to turning out to be much less based on distant places fuels yet greater jobs would be created and greater spending and greater efficient financial gadget. a similar concept through fact the Stimulus kit in basic terms i does no longer spend any funds i did no longer have from cutting issues out of the funds and that i does no longer positioned the money into valueless motives that for the time of basic terms help a small form of individuals. to handle North Korea and Iran i might do 2 separate issues. Iran i might do what Obama is doing yet say something to the effects of (however if, the U.S. will proceed to motivate any combat for democracy international huge) Korea, however if, i might place boats interior firing distances of their missile bases and in the event that they hearth any missiles in our direction take out the missiles and the missile bases after giving them warning i might try this of direction.

    I do not think he likes America very much and is taking the opportunity to dismantle it piece by piece and remake it in the Progressive image he thinks is better.

    That makes him a bad President.
