Ummmm alright how much goddamn money did he waste on the health bill that has now been pushed to the side, I mean I like Obama but that was a stupid thing to do on is part, I don't think it's racism he just does some things that people will oppose. For instance the Gulf spill this year did you know BP was one of his top supporters for the campaign that's why that's why he was so lenient with them also the joint effort of BP and the Obama Administration made it so no outside help could come because they weanted to keep the oil to make money off of it, contrary to popular belief their top priority was money not helping so there's a couple reasons I'm sure there's more but there are always going to be people who oppose the president it's a power issue and a conspiracy issue alot of the time it's not pure racism like you wish it was so you would have something to complain about he does a lot of great things but also ALOT of things that aren't widely publicized that are no good at all too.

I am not sure we see things the same way. I do take some offense at the idea that because I don't agree with your view that I am somehow less intelligent. In fact based on some of the statements in your question one could cast the same net on you.
Racism will never end so long as we have people like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Michelle Obama, and Rev. Wright.
I look at our country kind of like a car that broke down. Neither me or Obama is a car mechanic. He is trying to fix the car by opening the hood and taking the engine apart. I am checking to see if the car has ran out of gas. In other words the fundamental elements of our country are fine, they don't need to be messed with. Why don't we start by checking the some of the basics first.

Aside from your lies, ie misinformation, Obama "stopped the oil leak in the Gulf"?
Really? Was he there? Did he put on scuba gear? Oh, right, maybe TWO months later, he addressed this on television! Two months!!!
Did he stop Holland from coming THE NEXT day, because they believed they had a fix? Were fishing and animal sanctuaries and tourist attractions impacted negatively?
I just crushed you. If I cared, I'd go right down your insipid list. He is the WORST president we have had in modern day. He is inept. Be prepared to lose big Nov.2. Oh and, stay out of Answers.
You amuse us, but really, we don't have the time for this nonsense.

He failed to Organize the Community of oceanic organisms to consume the BP oil spill in a timely manner.

Because there are alternate methods to fix the problems we have besides wasting money on special interests, unions and bailouts of states.

Oh I get it. He's trying to point out how obama is a complete and total failure so far. Typical troll, but was much more convincing.

it rather is not racist to oppose some or all of his regulations, it rather is a difference in ideology, or opinion. If one have been racist they might oppose, or help him, based basically on his race, and the regulations does no longer rely.
