U.S. President Barack Obama (center)
U.S. President Barack Obama's "We're In This Together" speech, fell on deaf ears in his own Democratic Party. A number of prominent Democrats are deserting the president, as November mid-term elections near. Obama's big budgets, unsound financial plans, pro-9/11 mosque stance and ambiguity about his Muslim religion, has alienated a number of voters.
Democrats running for office and reelection, do not want the controversy surrounding Obama to rub off on them at the polls. One must state, the president's political planners are not very shrewd. Most presidents and prime ministers play it safe in the first term, with the hope of gaining a second one.
From day one, Obama's political framework, which makes up his presidential plans, have been recklessly constructed and illogically executed. It squarely placed him in trouble in one year flat. They did not play it smart. Then again, too many of his policies are based on things other presidents tried in eras gone by, not applicable to the current financial depression and national deficit.
And no matter what Obama tells you, regarding not wanting a second term, it is untrue, as he loves the limelight, the sound of his own voice and so-called power. He enjoys reshaping America into his image. The only problem is...it's not working. For further reference, see soaring unemployment, foreclosures and the national deficit.
