(81 posts)Obama won in 2008 in a near landslide, he has a much larger base than Jimmy Carter or George Bush had, the economy is improving and the fact still remains that for whatever mistake this administration has done in domestic or foreign policy, Barack Obama is an honest man with clear principles, goals and methods on how to achieve them, he has no dirty little secrets or scandals a la Lewinski affair or Watergate behind him. The Republicans can only in the end resort to mindless raging on and on how he is a Kenyan, Muslim, socialist etc. I truly believe that the majority of voters will see this, maybe only a slim majority but still a majority and I do think that Obama will go down in history as one of the great American presidents...the facts speak for themselves and they say that this administration is pulling the country out of what is perhaps the greatest financial crisis and global recession ever...America is doing better than most of Europe because of the policies supported by the Democrats and Obama. Of course you shouldn't ignore what the polls are saying, but keep the overall, global state of things in mind. Obama is a story of success not of failure.
