    Right we shouldn't vote for Obama because people like you are too stupid and gullible to realize that to do what Obama promised would require more then a four year term, at least he acted on a couple of his promises which is more then I can say for most politicians.

    Obama actually completed a majority of the things he promised.

    Ya like balancing the budget, getting the troops out of Afghanistan, stopping government bailouts, starting up medical care, etc. etc.

    Somehow the he managed to have a philibuster proof majority in Congress + the eternal love of 51+% of the American Voters, and yet still did not manage to get much done. Especially in balancing the budget, he nearly doubled the deficit.

    Also, why are you calling him "stupid" and "gullible"? Has hasn't done anything wrong.

    Maybe a third. In a few cases he actually crossed his own promises like expanding Nuclear Power, and in fact he shrunk it a bit.

    To be fair to him, the Fukashima incident really kind of... sunk that idea. Even with every expert screaming "US plants are different! US plants are SAFE!", most of the Americans seem NOT to want more, for some odd reason...

    I think the problem with Obama is that people demanded too much of him, they wanted him to be the messiah superhero president and fix everything.
