I know everyone has their own opinion but, do you watch Fox News? If so, how can you say our president is doing a good job. Why just today, he was playing golf while the Mexican borders were open with this Swine Flu going everywhere. He hasn't appointed a Surgeon General or head of CDC. I think our president should be on top of this Flu all the way. This is just ONE example of how he reacts. Who is minding the store?? GM is laying off employees just to name one company. We are going nowhere fast. You must have a lot of money and can sit back while this takes a couple of years that most folks don't have while our President screws up the healthcare, the banks, Wall Street. Gitmo right now should not be his priority. We should be his priority. You and Me. We put these people in office and then they forget about us while they reap the money. To heck with us. Who's bailing us out??? Our country is going in the wrong direction and our President is leading us there. There is no leadership from him. He's doing what he wants to do. He is giving back to the many Left Wingers that helped him get the presidency not, helping us when our country is sinking. He is going out of the country and apologizing for OUR bad behavior. We are a proud country and not a begging country. We do things right here in this country and he is making us look like a bunch of IDIOTS. Bowing to a KING. Come On......

How can you say this when throughout the entire election that is how he was labeled by the media…the black candidate. He has hardly tried to mislead anyone as you have seen his white mother, white grandparents, African father & a sister who is also of multi-cultural descent. They have been seen in his commercials, online and in TIME & PEOPLE magazine among others. He has spoke of them all very honestly on many occasions. How did you feel when you found out that your grandchild would be bi-racial? I only ask this because I have several friends that went through a harsh negative experience within their family unit throughout the pregnancy and then once the baby was born things improved because they realized the child was a part of their family and loved the child but still went on to make many a racist remark. Let me enlighten you as I have a bi-racial daughter and am VERY aware of exactly how black bi-racial children are seen. My daughter is very proud of the fact that she is both black & white. However, when people look at a bi-racial person, what color do they see? Not so much the white-ness (unless they are very light skinned) they often look twice with confusion when hearing a child with a dark complexion call a white person Mom. Just think what would have happened when Obama was a child if he had gone up to a "White's Only" water fountain because after all he is part white and there were no bi-racial fountains back then. Yes if you want to be technical about it, he is bi-racial, as is your granddaughter and my daughter…but color is color and obviously in this country racism still makes for a huge issue. We have come a very long way, but have an even longer road to travel before people are seen as people and judged solely upon their character as opposed to their skin color. You say you have nothing personal against him, but won't vote for him, thus potentially enabling the "4 years of McBush." Yes, Hillary is strong, has great determination and great leadership qualities…but she is no longer in the race so instead of crying poor Hillary & "what a shame" recognize the fact that she has lost but there is still a chance to unite the democratic party and continue on with the same ideas that she advocated, through Obama. There plans were almost identical and benefit our country far more than the McBush policies that have lead us into the predicament we are in today. Think hard before you make that decision of not voting or voting for McBush and how it may affect our country down the road.
