I hate to disappoint people but, President Obama is not "The President Of The World." However, it appears there are those who feel President Obama should be managing every crisis on the globe with an iron fist. And, then we have others who feel he should speak out more with regards to these crisis's, along with being on the protest line in Wisconsin at the same time. Honestly, do some people not understand how silly that sounds?
We do not have a reactionary President, thank goodness for that! We have a President who happens to be a pragmatist, along with being a realist.
If we take a visit back in time it may be good to remember what President Obama inherited before he became President in January of 2009.
- War in Iraq
- War in Afghanistan
- Economy already on the brink
- Republican's- The Party of No!
- GOP: Who will do anything to destroy President Obama's Presidency- Stated OPENLY
What is President Obama currently dealing with?
- Economy, making strides; even though there are those who will state the opposite
- A Republican controlled Congress
- War in Afghanistan; Getting conflicting views RE: The need to continue vs. need to end this war.
- Civil unrest in the Middle East: IE: Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Yemen, Tunisia, et al
- Republican Governors who are intent on crushing labor Union's in USA
- Republicans & Corporations who are trying with all their might to make sure the middle class does not exist
- Women's rights issues: Once again GOP-Republicans who feel that women should have no rights
- New to equation: Tea Party- Funded by Koch Brothers, yet fooling people into believing this is a grassroots organization
- North Korea
- Trade with China
- Pakistan with claims that they do harbor terrorists & Nuclear arms
- Iran; Nuclear Arms
- Israel and Palestine: The never ending "Peace Treaty" which to date is still in the works
- For more please view President Obama's agenda, it's never ending
If people are disappointed that President Obama has not come out and made threatening statements with regards to the civil unrest in the Middle East, please put on your thinking caps, because it's not politically responsible for him to do so. Why is that so?- If our President went on National Television and threatened eg., Gadhafi in any way, shape or form; he would put Libya's Civilians at more risk due to the nature of Gadhafi's mental status, and the fact that he is committing genocide on his own Civilians as I write. So, our President must work behind the scenes with not only his administration, but other countries as well in order to determine the best possible solution. One would hope that most people understand the delicacy of these situations, and why it is that we are not hearing more from the President or his administration for security purposes.
There has also been a lot of complaints about President Obama stating he should be out with the Protesters in Wisconsin. As President, that is not his job. He has made it clear he fully stands behind the Unions, but if people are upset- it's OUR job as citizens of the US to go out and protest in numbers; making it clear we will not allow Big Corp's and their puppets IE: Governor Scott Walker-WI, Governor Kasich-OH et al to bust Unions in our country. Democrats- we must unite and stand behind our President, because it's our future at risk, and in the end if the TeaParty/Big Corps win we can only blame ourselves for not standing up for what is right and standing with our President.
