Why does no one tlak about this when they talk about Obama's statistics?
Ok so for those of you who think that this is going to be something against Obama, it isn't. I support him 100% of the way on most things (I am however against abortion, and disagree about a few things). That being said I bring this into the equation. There is no lying that Obama has had poor statistics as president in the last 5 years (4 depending on how your counting), no matter who supply's them they all look pretty bad. And so people get to thinking "well this guy has done a horrible job". But I was watching a replay of some presidential campaign "quotes" of you want to call them that from Obama's party about the subject. And what I found is very interesting. So you probably know that Romney did not have the best statistics in Massachusetts as governor (deny it if you will, but realistically he didn't), but to be fare he did not start with the best of circumstances. And that is what the people in Romney's campaign party said, that you have to look at after the first year, and look at THOSE statistics. Which is a fare point because you would have to wait a little while for the president (or governor in this case) get his ideas and his ideas flowing into the system. And so if you take away that first year of Romney's, his stats are pretty good. But that is the same for Obama, in fact if you take the first 6 months of his 1st presidency his stats look good. As well they look excellent after his first year. And so I was wondering, why does no one talk about this?
@Mary. I was in Florence at the time (going on a vacation with my family) when I saw the news station report on it. And surprise, surprise, they did not have any mainstream media in Florence from America. And so I saw this on BBC. And as well I can see that there is no trying to reason with you, that you will live in your little bubble of right-wing radical lies, and get all your information from other crazy radicals, and so me even trying to argue with you that Obama did not bribe anyone, or that he does not control the mainstream media, is useless.

The mainstream media is very biased due to Obama's tax breaks and bribery for Hollywood. He essentially runs the media, aside from FOX or BBC, so most stations will not bring up anything negative about him. Look at how the Benghazi trial was not even mentioned by any channel except FOX. ABC, CNN, NBC, etc. did not cover the Philadephia abortionist at all either. If it might hurt Obama the media will not broadcast it!

Comparing economic statistics across different periods does not take into account that the issues we are facing today are unlike any seen since the Great Depression.
The fact of the matter is the USA has seen 15 consecutive quarters of positive growth with a higher growth rate in that time than all other major high income countries except Australia and South Korea.
In a global economy look at how the US is doing against the developed world and by that measure the Obama economy is doing remarkably well - certainly a lot better than the nations that followed the GOP's preferred "austerity" route.

you recognize, it is disappointing analyzing each and every person of those issues. i in my opinion think of that Barack Hussien Obama will make an marvelous president, and that i'm satisfied to have him. of course the way issues have been entering into this u . s . a . isn't effectual. - i think of all of us can agree that no person likes paying extreme taxes, yet somewhat in assessment to something of the international individuals pay VERY low taxes. IMO Obama's plan is extra alluring to me. Mcain talked "tax breaks" yet all which means is reducing classes that help minorities. - i'm additionally uninterested in listening to blacks in basic terms voted for Obama using fact he's black. Why is it so annoying to fathom that possibly they agreed with what he stands for. consistent with hazard some did vote for him for totally that reason yet whilst all of it comes all the way down to it, it is nonetheless THEIR vote. oh, and why isn't everyone taking situation with people who did no longer vote for him using fact he's black??? the place are each and every of the courtroom situations approximately white human beings balloting for McCain using fact he's white???
