Does anybody know? It's not like the job came with an employees handbook. There's no probationary period either. Obama basically jumped into a very deep pile of....

I think he is doing what he can. The results, obviously, will not be instantaneous, so it's sort of a waiting game.

It's really too soon to tell. He took office knowing that the country had essentially gone down the toilet, and it'd be up to him to fix it. He's had 9 months thus far to rectify 8 years [if not more] of damage - *no-one* could solve it all in that time. Also, he's taken on several issues that the country's needed to fix for quite some time - health care, the education system, and environmental concerns, for example. He's got quite a lot on his plate, and a lot of the struggle and quagmire actually comes from Congress, not Obama himself. I think he's doing the best he can, which is far better than we've seen in quite some time.

[Incidentally, why is his name in quotes in the thread topic? Quotes != emphasis. </grammarnazi>]

I wonder why people would vote for him, just so they can criticize him the minute he is put to office.  :)

I think Obama is doing a great job.  Our situation did not happen overnight and it will take time to fix it.  I was unemployed myself this year but I don't blame Obama for that.

I honestly believe he's trying to tackle alot of things to get us out of the situation we are in.  His goal is to help us but we all know in order to succeed, it not only takes patience but also time.

err is there a purpose in putting his name in quotes?  Like he doesn't really exist or something?  Just a figment of our imaginations right?

I have heard he's the anti-Christ. And we know he doesn't exist, so maybe so o_o

Let's give the man a chance to heal what the past leader had cause.  Maybe he is doing what he is good for the country.  I for one, I am so fortunate to get a job on this economy crisis, so I do not want to think that Obama is not doing his job or at least not trying to do his best.   :cat:

I'm still not on the Obama bandwagon.  If he can pull this economy out of wherever it is, get some jobs going again, and fix healthcare, then I'll be more likely to say yes to this question the next time around.  He came into this job with a lot of talk of things he was going to do and change.  It hasn't quite been long enough to fix it all, but don't you guys think that by now the unemployment rate should have started dropping again?

No.
And the president(including Bush) has almost no impact on this.

I KNOW THAT OBAMA IS A BUSY GUY AND TRYING TO CLEAN UP THE MESS THAT BUSH HAS CAUSED IN THIS COUNTRY BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS UNEMPLOYMENT RATE?

The unemployment rate apparently is something that gets worked on AFTER the beers with local police officers and the Presidents old buddy professor.

patriot act still exists, he has doubled the troops in afghanistan...  Im not talking about Bush, Im talking about Obama... but doesnt sound much different does it? Even gunatanamo bay is still open which he claimed would be the first thing he took care of,  not that closing a single facility will stop torture as a method. Its a building? he needs to stop torture, not close a single torture facility when there are others and they can be created anywhere.

Bush supporters 'believed' everything he did too.. in fact Hitler's supporters 'believed' in him for a very long time and even during the roughest times. Belief is great, but it does nothing for you, you must look at the facts, like doubling of troops, and look at actions...
