Should OBAMA be re-elected?

Guys, this has been a tough last few years for the US. Would a new President really chage it? As long as the two sides are at eachothers throats I do not see it getting better.

Maybe just because we do not have war protests under him.

He is also a great face for Americans, he is beloved by the international community (well atleast in Europe). He is a great orator and makes us look great.

No.

Then again I'm not liking the GOP candidates.

Nope. I think Paul should get the nomination imo

yes, unemployment has decreased significantly and the economy is turning aroundZumaJones07

Decreased significantly? Uh, we're at 8.2% IIRC, the high for the Obama admin. was around 9%, correct? That's not a significant decrease at all.

On topic: I don't think Obama should be re-elected. He's an ineffective president when it comes to the economy. He said he would lower the corporate tax rate in 2011's SOTU and nothing happened.

You should love President Obama and his use of Christianity in office... I mean you liked Bush right?

What makes you think I'm a Christian?

Without a viable candidate.....yeah. Unfortunately.LJS9502_basic

I'm not sure. Considering the job he's done so far, I'm not sure he's the best choice right now. He's definitely better than a few of the other candidates I've seen, though. It may come down to the lesser evil.BranKetra

Compared to the clowns that the GOP has as candidates, definitely. Person0

the republicans blocked it in congress :P comp_atkins

Most likely because it was attached to something they disagreed on. I bet if there was a bill that ONLY lowered the corporate tax rate, Republicans would have voted on it. :P

If republicans are hypocritical, then can be said of democrats? These are the same people who berate Bush, yet support Bush 2.0.

[QUOTE="Person0"][QUOTE="gigantuouse"] What makes them clowns? OR is it just because they are republican?Dy_WarriorsXoXo

You honestly need to define terms if the way you are using is not an accurate description.

How is Romney extreme in his religious views, or Ron Paul for that matter?

Could you also explain how their social and economic policies are "terrible" in more detail please?

with respect to what? an actual requirement for multipurposed bills or the general tone of what i'm saying? hard to tell with just text.comp_atkins

An actual requirement for multipurposed bills.

No, Obama doesn't deserve a second term, but the GOP candidates don't deserve a first.

No.

I didn't vote for him in 2008, but I decided to give him an honest shot. And he's had four years, now. Nothing.He even started with a super majority in the house, but he chose to squander that bypushing his bill that simply forces you to procure insurance under the threat of fine or imprisonment. And because of that,the demslosttheir super majority and now complain thatthey cant get anything done.

I don't really see a republican i would want as president so as of now i would want obama re-elected.

[QUOTE="bonesawisready5"]We're screwed. Whether you're conservative or liberal, we're screwed for the next few decades. If Obama gets re-elected then he's still going to have trouble getting any change (whether you like his change or not) with all the conflict in Washington. If someone else gets elected, they will have to same problem. Until the country as a whole has a sea change in its attitude neither party will bring any change at all.Dy_WarriorsXoXo

There is no "If Obama gets re-elected..." it is happening and the whole thing is staged.

OWS and Romney as the nominee coincidence? Plus President Obama has nearly one billion dollars raised already, that is more than all the other candidates combined.

Romney for instance has less than 1/4 of President Obama's reelection funding.

Last election President Obama raised twice as much as McCain raised...

Obama is the same way...

Romney stated he does not let religion impact his policies and that he is not very religious. His support of many of these policies are to get through the Republican primaries and even barring that you can be against abortion or same sex marriage without being religious (an anomoly but it is sort of stereotypical to think otherwise imo).

sarcasm. tough to convey sometimes.comp_atkins

Just making sure. :P
