Americans Vote Out Democrats In Midterm Elections Posing An Overwhelming Challenge To President Obama (Video)

U.S. President Barack Obama saw his Democrats suffer a sweeping defeat in the mid-term elections on November 4, 2014. The rival Republican party made significant strides and now control both houses of the U.S. Congress. This will make President Obama's remaining time in office very difficult, as the Republican party is not in agreement with his political plans. Obama is threatening to use Executive Orders to ram through his agenda, which is going to turn ugly.

President Obama held a lengthy press conference today to address questions regarding the Democrats defeat at the polls. It was a humbling experience for Obama, whose presidency held a lot of hope for many. However, voting patterns indicate, the same young demographic that paid a key role in electing and re-electing Obama, are disappointed with how things have gone and simply did not vote this week.

Obama Controversially Considering Executive Order On Gun Control In America

U.S. President Barack Obama is sensationally threatening to invoke Executive Order regarding gun control in America. The U.S. Constitution guarantees Americans the right to bear arms, but recent shootings, such as Sandy Hook and Aurora, Colorado, have alarmed the government.

Announcements from the White House in this regard are very controversial and being met with great opposition. It will be very interesting to see how this one plays out, as it would set a precedent. However, this could also prove very dangerous for Obama, as a small percentage of gun owners are violent. If he does adopt this measure, the president needs to take greater safety measures and not be so open during public stops.
