He said get them out of Iran and Iraq, other than the security forces for peacekeeping, but mostly they're out. Some came home, but a lot were moved to Afghanistan and Pakistan. As soon as their governments basicly stop being lazy and take control of the situation, the troops will leave.
It's not as easy as you think it is to keep your promises. I mean, even if he wanted too, the senate (I think) has to agree. And even if they do agree, it still takes time. He can't just wake up one morning and boom! Universal healthcare.
Obama has kept these promises but presidents are not kings like loloyanage2 said:

Things take time, and already he has started to remove troops from the front line. But it will be a long process the soldiers cannot just leave we have set out with a goal and we cannot leave the other nations without helping them get back on their feet. When we leave we want the people to be able to take the matter into their own hands.
With anything anyone does in a democracy, it takes time. Especially in this bi- partisan warzone we call a democracy. The reason everything takes forever is because of the bi- partisanship. Just like with the healthcare... in the upcoming election, If Republicans get more seats in the senate, I'm almost certain that the first thing they'll do is repeal that bill and pretty much everything else Obama has done. I think he really is trying to keep his promises, but the warzone of a congress won't let him
JalapenoFez-then don't comment. I know its not that easy to do it, but he's saying change this and change that. nothing good has really happened. if anything its just gotten worse
