Barack Obama for (Former) President, 2012!

I think he has prove himself to be a true leader, i will sure surport him

Great, now come up with a decent candidate to replace him. That will be much harder....

Of course you could! However, even YOU have to admit the GOP field is really, REALLY pathetic. I honestly don't think there's a single one who would have the slightest prayer of winning a general election and that's BEFORE the primary season which we all know will be brutal with all the fighting among the Republicans.

I personally like Obama as President. He may not have done as much as he hoped to do, but he does have to deal with the support of the Senate and House which is usually not the best of situations. I believe that he has some great ideas, but that things need to change overall in the world of politics.

It depends upon whether the Republicans nominate a credible candidate with the capacity to lead, not just panderers who quote the lie promulgated by propagandists on the right that the solution to all our problems is to reduce taxes. If I hear the Republican cliche "We don't have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem" one more time I will puke. Bush inherited a budget surplus in 2000-2001, then in 8 years borrowed 2 trillion dollars (mostly from the Chinese) to finance tax cuts (mostly for the wealthy) and 1.2 trillion to pay for the Iraq and Afgan wars. This was the first time the country ever reduced taxes in times of war! The tax cuts did not produce the jobs promised (big business mostly invested overseas) but along with the Bush deregulation policies created real estate and stock market bubbles that burst in 2007-2008, resulting in the recession and unemployment we now have. In case you want to blame the Democrats, don't forget we had a Republican Congress from the time Bush was elected through the end of 2006. At the time the Republicans were not complaining about spending and deficits. So the Republicans have to nominate a good, pragmatic candidate who will not just pander to the Tea Party and supply side tax cutters but will do what's necessary to get the job done-- a Harry Truman or Ronald Reagan. Despite the right-wing mythology that surrounds Reagan, he raised taxes twice to solve the deficit problem and fix social security to make it sound at the time the baby boomers would retire. He also was pragmatic in foreign policy--contrary to the right wing playbook at the time-- by negotiating arms control with the Breshnev and the Soviets. Unless the Republicans nominate a good candidate, Obama will be returned to office.

I know that the 'Obama question' is an emotional one for most people which is a poor way to choose a Presidential candidate or elect one. Emotionalism does not lead one to make good choices in any area. There is a great deal that sitting Presidents attempt that never meets the public eye attempts to close Gitmo failed for many reasons. The stimulus package was an attempt that did not guarantee success yet it was an attempt. Unemployment has been dropping, this is a cyclic event which other Presidents have been also suffered through and been blamed for by the public. The American public seems to forget that each President inherits both the problems and solutions of the previous administration. Bush did not continue policies set by the Clinton administration that lead to a balance budget, Bush did institute a policy of borrowing, a war in Iraq, Afghanistan which have cost trillions. Politicians do not control businesses although regulations can in some instances be a good thing. Quality over quantity,and business will sacrifice quality for the sake of profits. It's the nature of the beast. People look to large corporations to create jobs, yet there is an unfounded potential in cottage industry which would not only create jobs but thousands of nw businesses. Some politicians believe that by cutting fundamental financial resources for untold thousands of Americans will not only lead to a balance budget but also allow for economic growth. This is a fallacy. America's problem is spending yes, but it is also a revenue problem, the collection of revenues due to the body politic. Every proposal I have read floated by the conservative faction has been one of reduced or eliminated benefits for those who have spent years paying for those benefits. I have yet to see any proposals by either faction to collect the past due revenues owed, revenues in the trillions of dollars.

Woopee! Yes, Yes. Yes.... Where do I sign up?

I believe that I could fully support him in his retirement from office. Just think of all the activities he once again engage in that his job prevents him from enjoying now. He could go back to church and publicly embrace Jeremiah Wright. He could listen to whatever rap artist he wanted to, even the ones who sing about killing cops and his predecessor. Michelle could eat all the tamales she wants to without anyone calling her a nutritional hypocrite. Sadly, his retirement would probably afford him fewer international vacations and he wouldn't get to play golf as often.

I think I will have to agree with you on this I think it is a job he can do just fine. I am not voting for him and I am not voting for the clown the Republicans will more than likely choose to run for president.

I'll take a case of those buttons and a couple of boxes of bumper stickers too... Hussein O Past it for a T-Shirt has a nice ring to it too.

I'd vote for BO for "Face I'd Most Like To See On A Postage Stamp" anytime! Maggiepie "There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." ~ Edith Wharton, novelist 1862-1937

Way t'GO, Tedster! Are you selling these as bumper stickers, letter stickers, or even as badges? If they were small stickers, I'd love to stick them on envelopes! I'm positive WND would be a good market for them! ;o Maggiepie "There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." ~ Edith Wharton, novelist 1862-1937

I won't be supporting President Barack Obama. No matter what! I will vote for someone else! Heck I don't know yet! I am not sure who is all running. When I do then I'll decide. Until then,I will wait.

Sounds good, as long as a real conservative/libertarian replaces him!
