    2. Racial division encouraged by Obama. And the avalanche of expensive and useless regulations by Obama has imposed on businesses.

    3. 97 million people out of work, including those looking for work, or having given up on finding work. The highest Misery Index of any president, and the earnings of the average family down $4,500 annually.

    4. No! That fraud should never have been elected.

    5. Obama isn't doing anything about it because he doesn't care. All he's after is the celebrity and perks. Plus, Obama's dream is to bring America down and reduce us to a lesser nation because he doesn't think we should be exceptional. Just a mediocre failure like he is.

    He has spoken of inadequate education. Unfortunately, he continues to listen to traditional educators and try to improve it by test scores. What needs to happen is that the whole system needs to be scrapped and started over. He has spoken of a lack of training for jobs. While I agree with this and he has tried, he has been blocked at every turn by Republican filibusters, even on job training for veterans. He has also recommended free college for the first two years. This should be done, because a 12 year education does not prepare you for much of anything job-wise. The first two years of college should be added to that 12 years instead of separated into a pay for play system. This of course has also been blocked by Republicans.

    He has spoken of low pay and the effect that has on demand. He was able to raise the minimum wage for federal contractors, but Congressional Republicans have also blocked that, even though some of the states are starting to raise it on their own.

    Hope this helps!

    Compared to 2009, 401k investments back to all-time highs. Home Values back. Russell2000 back to all-time highs. DOW30 all-time high. S&P500 all-time high. New ACA law has given great Health Insurance to millions of Americans. No more pre-existing conditions bullsheet. No more life-time cap bullsheet.

    I hope this helps in your homework assignment.
