With the exception of dying, resigning, or getting impeached, WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO LIKE OBAMA?

I'd probably respect him a bit more if he tried to introduce some more left-wing liberal ideas to American politics. But realisticallly that could never happen so he's going to keep on with his right-wing agenda until he retires.

He would have to have a miraculous epiphany in understanding the wisdom behind the Constitution, including Natural Rights and limited government. The epiphany would enlighten him that prosperity does not flow from government but from the private sector. He would need to dump his lifelong belief that more government is good and that, although wanting to "perfect" society is a noble goal, it's much better to be left to the individual to determine what's best for them, not government. He would have to see the power in the private sector to make better solutions to peoples' needs that government can. This would also include making more wealth, for more people (even the poor) than any other system in the world. His measure of compassion would be how many people government doesn't have to take care of because they are able to realize much more out of life than being dependent on government to run their lives for them.

He would also have to gain a strategic view of foreign policy, not be afraid to label militant Fundamentalist Islam (but making the distinction between it and Islam) as the enemy and have policy that does more than trying to pander and curry favor with those who don't like the US.

For him to stop being such a puppet and man up. Basically all presidents are puppets. I believe JFK was the last "real" president, which is why he was assassinated by the elite.

Its hard to actually criticize him as a president because he is of african complexion, and then id be racist.

Anyways, open is not doing anything better for the economy then G.W.B.

P.S Just waiting for the economy crisis, and the fall of the american dollar because of the Obama Administration.

i decided to give him a chance when he was elected in 2008(i didn't vote for him)but as i predicted he really screwed up. He has been printing money which provided short term results which basically secured all uneducated peoples votes under the age on 25, but it is basic Macro-economics: printing money=inflation

nothing really.

You cannot, no should not give a person who is so clearly , by a lifetime of words and action, completely against traditional value set and the Constitution, a chance.

that is lunacy. You would not do the same for some one wh is so utterly opposed to your values.

Repeal repeal repeal and give back control to the private sector. Make a big ole dent towards balancing the budget

Nothing he can do. He is not street-wise smart. He has no experience. He cannot make decisions. We might as well have a teenager in office.

If he would admit the truth, he is trying to destroy America, that would make me like something he has done.
