The reason i hate the president is not because he is black but because of what he is doing to our economy i am not saying Macain would have done any better or that Gorge.w.bush would have whipped us into shape but i am just stuck.
Well yes, he has ultimate say in his veto does he not?
No, a presidential veto can be overturned by a 2/3 majority in the senate and the house I believe. So even his trump card isn't really all that strong. Of course, with the two parties being fairly equally represented, a 2/3 majority doesn't happen much because each party on principle makes sure not to vote for what the other one wants, even if it is a good idea.
Really...all the president can do is suggest ideas and try to lead in the right direction, and has a few emergency powers that after a period of time can be overturned anyways.
I'm pretty much fed up with both parties, democrats and republicans. Obama tried to make healthcare more affordable to everyone and he prevented the criminals who run the insurance companies from refusing people with preexisting conditions but since most of the congress is composed of traitors and criminals, the president had to modify the bill so badly that it's not much helpful to anyone. As soon as another party or president is elected, the CRIMINALS who run the crooked insurance companies will make sure that they can abuse the people the way THEY want and they will scrap the Obama care.
Many people are feeling that way as if they have no candidate, with good reason as well.
I've found it rather odd he has decided to continue with many of Bush's policies considering his voting record showed him often voting against those policies.

You have to realise he can't pass a bill that won't go through a Republican House. So I guess he decided not to even draft some.
Still best America's had in a while. Don't particularly like my prime minister. Still he's better than Gordon Brown who was not very good and better than Tony Blair who's just a two-faced *******. And Barack Obama is better than George W. Bush anyway. Of course he has done some good, not primarily for the economy but he's trynna legalise free health care. It works better that way. I know that the NHS is not as bad in a small country as it would be in a big country like America, but I fell fairly certain that he's trying Gotta give him some credit for that...
