Obama Weathering the Storm of the Presidency

It was inevitable. The honeymoon that President Barack Obama, and all other presidents, experienced has officially given way to criticism of his policies on the economy and health care to false rumors that he may not be a natural-born U.S. citizen and therefore ineligible to hold the office of president. The criticism reached a fevered pitch when Obama spoke out against the arrest of his friend, Henry Louis Gates, who accused Cambridge, Mass. police of racial profiling.
President Obama entered the White House to much celebration and pageantry. However, despite being liked by many Americans, some of his policies are disliked just as much. Nevertheless, by weathering the storm that all presidents endure, Obama’s presidency can …

The TOP TEN Looming Challenges for President Barack Obama

Tomorrow’s Crisis “Tomorrow will give us something to think about” Marcus Tullius Cicero, 106 BC-43 BC
On January 20, 2009, President Barack Obama took the inaugural oath to become the 44th President of the United States and Commander in Chief of the most powerful military force on earth. His mandate from the American people seems clear – change course – and he has a strong majority in the Congress to support his agenda.
Change, however, is easier to promise than deliver. If the past is prologue, the emerging economic and geopolitical landscape will have more to do with how the new President handles these challenges, than any ideological promises he made during the election campaign. Leading a …

Get Ready For The Obama Health Care Plan

OK boys and girls, I have been keeping my eye on this so called health care plan of Obama’s, and while our system could use a tuneup, it still beats all the other health care systems in the world, it’s quite possible that you shouldn’t use it if you can’t afford it.
What should I have to pay for you to go to the doctor, do you enjoy your taxes rising because the way I understand things it will push taxes up by 9%, now I don’t which taxes will go up, but you can bet it will be whatever pays the government the most money to offset the health care plan.
This is how socialized health …

Guantanamo – Democrats have a better Idea: Now If They Can Only Figure Out What It Is.

President Obama has made one thing perfectly clear, both during his campaign and without hesitation once becoming president of our country. Guantanamo, sometimes affectionately referred to as Gitmo, has got to go.
Sure, it has successfully held some of the worst terrorists we have captured so far, including al Qaeda chief and confessed planner of the 9/11 massacre, Khalid Sheik Mohammad, but in the words of our leader it has become an embarrassment for America.
In his May 21, 2009 speech on national security given at the National Archives in Washington D.C., President Obama stated: “there is also no question that Guantanamo set back the moral authority that is America’s strongest currency in the world. Instead of …

Obama Approval Rating in First 100 Days

Whether you voted for him or not, few Americans can honestly say that on January 20th, they were not anxious to see how the first Black President of the United States would perform as leader of the free the world. After recently completing his first 100 days in the Oval Office, the Barack Obama approval rating is extremely high for a leader faced with so much adversity from a devastating recession to two wars in the Middle East.
The Obama approval rating notwithstanding, how has the Commander-in-Chief performed as president and has he succeeded at accomplishing the many promises he made on the campaign trail?
According to a recent Associated Press poll, the Obama approval rating is …

Should Blacks Be Paid Reparations

During the recent presidential campaign a rumor was started and widely circulated that Barack Obama, if elected, would begin a process to pay reparations to Black descendents of former slaves.
Such rhetoric betrays a serious lack of understanding of how things work at the highest levels of politics. For one, the office of President of the United States is primarily a figure head position. Another thing is that presidents have very little real power. The executive branch of government at the federal level was purposely designed by the writers of the Constitution to be the weakest of the three governing bodies.
The reparations rumor was designed to have the same effect on the body politic as the …
