1. Still like it, find it not at all stupid. -nt

2. The failure has been the people who stopped supporting him shortly after the election. We haven't

been nearly as vocal or active politically as we need to be to get the changes we want. The tea party is working non-stop. Most of us aren't working nearly as hard for what we want.

4. "to get the changes we want" - that's exactly the right way to put it...

5. Yes we can!

It's not about Obama, it's about we the people. It's not about one election it's about all elections, 2014 included as well as 2016. Yes we can as a people.

6. Well, I thought it was fairly cringe worthy even at the time.

Once in a while you get the real thing worth celebrating but you need to make them prove it first.

Ego usually runs first in politics and when you see fawning dreck like this the best response is usually to be even more skeptical.

7. I have not one regret for working

for this man's campaigns or voting for him twice.

Grow up. We voted for a man. Period. You just understood that?

9. it was nice to believe for a couple of months that yes we could

Unfortunately, we did, but we didn't.

Yes we can, be duped by a smooth talking charlatan

but in the end, what choice did we have? Obama-Hillary-McCain. Only ONE offered at least a CHANCE. So we spent a few dollars on lottery tickets and sat in front of the TV to see the winning numbers.

Unfortunately in American politics today, the house always wins. And when Republicans surged back to take the House in 2010, that was the end of any more "yes we can".

11. He is as imperfect a president as I have ever seen. Better than most, but imperfect. Near the top,

even, but imperfect.
