So you don't deny hes a president and will be gone? That's fine my math isn't very good but I know I'm right about many things.

When you come on a platform of change and nothing changes.

So he promised change 2 1/2 years into his Presidency? I remember him numerous times during his inagural address that it would more than likely take two or more terms to fix things. I wouldn't put it past the voters of this country to put another Republican right back in to screw stuff up again only to complain about it four years later.

Corporation and capitalists control the politicians and the country, as Barry has so unarguably demonstrated. Even the "pure" tea baggers, duped or not, are controlled by Kock Bros and other wealthies.

If a Dem "change" President won't/can't overcome or even resist the corruption and paralysis, then we know a Repug govt, aka Regressives, will NEVER make any "progress" for Human-Americans, as the 8 duyba years proved.

Post-Election Obama tried to temper expectations. Pre-Election Obama not so much.

Give it 20 years, things will be back to normal and you can continue firing at polygons on a TV in your parents basement.

What I really see for the future is this thread being moved rather quickly to the correct forum, long before the 2012 election.

Explaining that to people who already have their simple little minds made up will only give you a headache.
