Because most of American no longer has anything remotely resembling independent or original thought, and depends on the media and government press releases to tell them what to think, what do you think they're going to think? They're going to think what the media and guv press releases tells them to think. The same thing your party tells you to think which is in disagreement with what Obama's party tells its sheeple to think.

It's probably time we had something to frighten the American people with so they quit spending so much time thinking about the things they are told to think.

He can compare himself to whoever he wants. Problem is, I just don't see the day when a future American president will want to be compared to Obama.

compare him to a cross between hitler(fascist), marx(communist), and jessica simpson(celebrity status), and you may be shocked to find that the comparison fits.

Just because majority of people are potrayed(by the media) to have no original thought doesn't mean everyone is a zombie. And just because the media has no original ideas anymore doesn't mean a society doesn't either. There are people out there that do not follow the heard and when their time comes their voice will be heard.

It is a true disservice to compare Obama to MLK or Lincoln. I first must say this. I am proud that America has taken the chance to vote for a Black man. However that is it. Obama has done great things in his life, however he did not change the hearts of many. He has not paved a way for intolerance. This has been done already. He has stopped the view that America can not see past color. Even though we know all presidents are just front men. I hate the fact that my whole ethnic group will be judge on how he controls the white house and its policies. See this will be human nature. He has a lot of work that must be done, being the first person ,as a president that was not Caucasian. This would also happen if we had a hispanic, or etc. So we must forget his color now. Get past that stop talking about it, its old now. We need to judge him on what he does for America and her people. THAT IS IT!!!!!

Every man walks on his own. He leads a life for himself and his loved ones first and humanity second. Every man governs according to his own interest. You ask me what do I see as their differences. First a foundation starts off with the cornerstone. This is the most important piece of a house. It is shaped and molded precisely to hold weight. The difference now is, President Obama now is the weight that is on the cornerstone. If he is properly placed and all sides are even, the foundation will not crack. He is the finished product of the declaration of independence and the bill of rights. Now remember the house can fall, but it takes more to break the foundation. So I hope you now understand the difference between them three.

When I spoke about how Obama is the product of the Declaration of Independence, and Bill of Rights, I am speaking about the final definition of independence. America finally showed human rights. It has showed that the declaration is not just a paper anymore. I know we showed this many years ago, with the abolishing of slavery, desegregation and etc. However, we finally showed that the White House is for Any Free born American. Now I am not going to lie here. I am a proud Black Republican. I surely know that Obama is very very lucky. He was positioned to be in the spot he has. There wasn't any other choice to have. The Republican party had killed themselves the last 8 years, and there was no way America would have put one in the office. Statistically there has never been one party that controlled the house for 12 years or more in a row. So Obama was basically the less evil. Sorry to say he was a substitute. Now that he made it he has the same job every other President had. He must bring jobs to people like me, that lost everything because of the economy. He must represent America as a friend and helper to all. I truly believe America should put America first for one year. We can sustain our political power even if we don't give a dime to another country. So Mr. President, can you do for America what no other President can? I bet not you don't have the guts!!!!

No President had the guts to put America first. There has never been a President that said "Ok for one year we will put all money back into America." That means the trillions we spend a year for oversea aid should divert back to America. I believe that any other country should be equipped to take care of themselves. If not, they shouldn't be a country anyway. If the politicians understand that helping America will put us in a better position, they would change. However, because there must be an upper hand and lower, this will never happen. I am not advocating making every American rich. I am saying that to even out the playing field can help American's prosper and America herself. Now we are talking about working families, and some more better aid for single families as well. So Hepsy, you are asking me what guts are? Guts is the desire for change, it is too take life to another level. It is too do things that the average individual would never do. So President Obama is the new President, oh well, so what. He's policies towards his citizens he governs will be the same since the first President. Those who have, have, does who don't ,don't.. So I am happy to see that America tried something new, but there is so much new things we can try as well!!!!!!!

One thing he is doing like Lincoln is becoming a tyrant, Lincoln deserved it and obama has it in spades. If you doubt it look up in the dictionary.He will go down as the man who tried to destroy the country in history if the BC issue can't get him out. He has done more unconstitutional, outright unethical and illegal things than FDR and Lincoln combined.He is disrespecting our allies and kissing and bowing to enemies. Communist leaders call him a communist comrad. I could go on but none will matter to an obamamaniac.

First of all what does religion have to do with it? So what if a person wants to be a Muslim, Jew or Catholic. That has nothing at all to do with running the free world. Or are you stating that America is a catholic land. You are basically advocating what could be the war of religion. We need to understand that all great men regardless of color behind closed doors read every book. To understand another religion you must incorporate some of its ideas in your own thinking. I see no where in any written document to run America you have to be of a certain religion. America was made for religious freedom, not as a religious country. We use religion as a guide, to remember how to treat each other, that is it. So America has to mention religion because she deals with countries that are religious based. This is why religion has no part in running a society. It tends to confuse the citizens.

Honestly, so far our new president resembles more a of cross between FDR and Benito Mussolini (and the worst attributes of both too boot). What can one expect from a far left wing, populist though ?

If I were to meet him on a personal level, I'm sure Obama would be likable. But I don't know him personally.
I dislike Obama's politics.

You can rightly call me an objector to Obama apologizing for the generous benevolence of the United States.
You can also rightly call me an objector to the United States being called a country of Muslims.

To answer the second part of your question: Every president I have paid attention to does something or other I disagree with. Obama is on a roll.
