I'll take the latter thank you. The former sounds too militaristic and that's not what we need right now. We need a Community Organizer. One who's going to bring communities together instead of divide them through war or other means. One that recongizes how communities must interact and intergrate for the common good. And not just for the good of our nation. But for the good of our planet. Commander in Chief or Community Organizer in Chief.

I think 15-20 yrs maybe longer it will come out that he wasn’t a bad guy just a crappy hand he was dealt.</i> I agree. Bush was definitely dealt a tough hand, although I don't think he played it as well as someone more committed to small government would have played it domestically. On the foreign front, I wish he wouldn't keep saying "Islam's a religion of peace". There are little posters of Obama all around downtown Chicago saying, "Obama sides with the Congress hotel workers", just like on this site http://www.congresshotelstrike.info/ I guess this kind of small-bore community agitating is some people's idea of the Presidency, but it definitely seems beneath the dignity of the office. Every minute Obama spends on that picket line is one less minute doing entitlement reform, which is really the most crucial issue of the day, not whether some hotel cook gets $9/hour or $10/hour. IBD, as usual, makes the distinctions that seem to go over others' heads. Right now everyone hates Bush.

He is half american and half muslim/arab. But that aside, he may or may not be a good president. That remains to be seen. But if he follows in Pelosi and Reids step he may not. Well not to most americans. You lefties he will be a GOD! Right now everyone hates Bush. I think 15-20 yrs maybe longer it will come out that he wasn't a bad guy just a crappy hand he was delt. Obama will get a free up swing when the market turns, and it's not going to be due to anything he will have done. It's the nature of the market. It goes up and down. It will stabilize and then it will go up 4 yrs from now when a Republican is elected! James and to every one else,

I'm in the oil industry so it is ok to attack it because we actually make a profit. I like how the Democrats only care about certain unions.

First, President Obama is pure African: the black half outweighs the white half. That much is clear. It's the ingrained "Eurocentric" male outlook that keeps almost all of you from recognizing that FACT. Second, just look at how much more the world loves our fallen nation now that President Obama has been elected. I foresee Him bringing an end to all war by 2011. If we are blessed enough to have President Obama serve a second term (undoubtedly, He will) I predict an end to worldwide poverty by 2014. I shake with emotion as I type. I cryed the night he was elected. Sobbed. He is the greatest thing to happen to since the founding of this country. He's better than Che, better than Salvador Allende, greater than Betty Crocker. You all just can't take it. Dear fellow Contributors: I am appalled. First, President Obama is pure African: the black half outweighs the white half. That much is clear.
