(57,936 posts)Sometimes he acts out of fear like everyone else.
But I support him because I know he is trying really hard to do the right thing and because he is a loving human being.
I do not worship Obama. I don't know yet whether he is the best president ever. He has four more years to prove it to me. So far he has done well.
He has a lot more to do and a course to change in terms of human rights, respecting the privacy of individuals, changing our trade balance, creating jobs and protecting our social safety net. Lots more. He has four more years to do it.
I worked hard to get Obama re-elected (as did many DUers), so I feel I have right to state my mind. I'm not just a complainer, but I want to see things done better.
Obama needs to cut all ties to anyone from Goldman Sachs and other big Wall Street brokerages. His contacts with them create the odor of corruption in his administration because they wreak of corruption.
