First of all, I don't believe the conspiracy theories about him. I am pretty sure he was really born in Hawaii. I am confident he is not the puppet of some new world order scheme. Thirdly, I really don't care that he is black. Pigmentation does not indicate mental or general ability.
However I do feel he is not suited to the job based on what I have seen during the past three years. First, his strongly pushed for measures like the Stimulus and Health Care bills did not work. Instead such acts only divided the American people more. I also believe the health care bill did some damage to health care. Then there is the fact that despite our debt and deficit, he felt free to spend billions. I do not believe Obama has the wisdom to know what is best for this country.
Then there was the recent debt deal. Before reaching a consensus, congress was strongly divided and time was running out. At this point the president should have been doing all he could to get the two sides to agree and come up with a plan before the deadline. Instead Obama picked a plan he liked and furthered the arguments in Congress. A good leader knows when to stand firmly and when to compromise. I do not think Obama has this crucial instinct.
Then there is the fact that he seems more concerned with his way then the people's will. When he said there must be cuts to social security and other programs of the people, he basically said we would just have to live with it. There was no mentioned of a cut in his our Congress' pay. A good leader is an example to his people. If the nation must sacrifice, then should not the leader do so as well? If he does not he appears to be a hypocrite.
Lastly he has done odd things. At one point during the debt deals, I read in the news that he claimed that 80% of Americans supported a tax increase. I am 99% sure he lied on that one. Also, when a plan of his doesn't work and he is confronted about it, he tries to distract the media and the people with hot button issues, such as gay rights.
Based on his actions I believe he should pursue a different career. It is time to give another nominee a shot at the presidency. Obama has proved himself ineffective and should not be given yet another four years to mess around.

Very good question rosa,
To me I want to say no but I can't judge much because in not in his position if someone comes along and promises more then he can I'm sure they will win but the way American is leading and how things are going I don't think much will be cones and obama position as the united states of Americas Lead ( president ) is on the line as we speak and many people that i have talk to said they one vote for him again. He leading this country in a hole ..?
But what do you think..?
