50. I agree 100%

I posted this because Rachel gives a damn good example of what could have been if we fucked up and somehow elected Mitt. I'm not saying Obama is perfect. In fact he's far from it. You make a lot of good points in your post and I agree with all of them. We have a lot of work to do to get money out of politics and elect more progressive politicians to get all of this done and a whole lot more to turn this country around and headed in the right direction. Our first priority must be amend the constitution to overturn Citizens United. Secondly establish federal election standards to ensure everyone that is legally allowed to vote can vote. These 2 things would go a long way to solve the real problems this country faces.

My 2 cents change.

51% isnt exactly a 'mandate'. it means that 49% of the voters dont agree with it. pasto76 Jan 2013 #48

Did you intend to reply to the OP or Ilsa Jan 2013 #49

Obama is the first Prez to be elected with 50% of the vote twice since, wait for it..... JeffHead Jan 2013 #51
