who he's helped while being the President.. there's always going to be those who don't want to even hear about it. They've got their FUD points with their fingers in their ears and they're good to go.

They were on this board in 2009 with their perpetual whine about ACA/Obama and the whine still spills.. too bad for them Obamacare is the law of the land and will only get stronger as the years pass.. thanks to people like you who will be actively making it so.
