Prove it.

Cause I know better.

yea, whatever... if i could prove it, i don't think i would waste the time...it's not my place to change anyone's opinions on stuff...
if you want, you can search the web and look it up, i'm not going to.
i know what i saw, and apparently it is different from what you saw.
it is easy to sit back and blame the republicans for obama's shortfalls, just as the repubs blamed the dems for bushes... bottom line is the president is the leader, in charge... if they can't get congress to go along with what they want, then they don't need to be in charge...

I think the word for one who gets people to do whatver they wish is DICTATOR,, not leader

If the president were to truly have the influence to get everyone to 'go along' there would be no need whatsoever for a congress

uhh, yes. i do live in the united states and have for most of my life.

congress and the house of representatives, the last time i checked the constitution (probly was changed since then), are supposed to represent the people. as far as i have seen, just about everything that has been passed in this administration has had less than 50% approval rating of the general public (democrats, republicans, independents, and everything inbetween).

these reps are supposed to represent 'the people' regardless of their affiliation. they don't, which is why there will likely be a shift come november and BO will more than likely be a one term president.

if they trusted him they would...

than that goes to my original question,, what would be the point of the congress ,,,?

my mom managed thousands in her career and she always said she would not want to work with someone who was just going to agree with her all the time, or else she could save money and look in a mirror

I'm voting for Donald Trump or Mitt Romney.

ha...donald trump...who's catch phrase is..."you're fired!"

does anyone know how to cut and paste anymore

He is also not taking responsibility it's all the blame game and his foreign policy sucks, the guy is a coward and I don't like that.

We also should not be pushed around by Iran and N. Korea and should be handling the "Tribal Region" of Pakistan with force and helping Yemen military in their fight against AQ since several of our HVT's are there. We could really handle this AQ and Taliban situation the right way. He also needs to listen to his General's like Patraeus. Patraeus is a decorated war hero and Obama treats him like crap and Patraeus has saves his a$$ on a number of occasions.

He should be handling the Piracy issue in Somalia a lot better, more ships and aircraft, sending dummy "Trap" tankers or high value target ships that are crewed by Navy and Marines ready to let the Pirates board then arrest them (and send them to the US for Prosecution) and sink their boats on the spot. Also have a helocopter ready for take off thats covered up ready to take off and capture the mothership and any other vessel that flees. I guarantee if we start doing that we will catch a lot of pirates(Probably 20-60 each time) and it will work at a great deterrant because the remaining Pirates will be very skeptical and wont attack as much. Also it will be hard to recruit new pirates because they will be scared to join their ranks for fear of boarding a dummy ship.

Also with more Military vessels we can respond quicker to scenes of attacks. If we had a couple of carriers in that area they can launch aircraft that would make it to the scene of an attack in a matter of minutes and fire on the pirates and at the very least make them retreat. The could even launch choppers with Seals and try to capture the pirates in mid attack.

Then he needs attempt to make progress on the border to Mexico. Build a three wall system. Hire more Boarder Agents. Giver them two dozen Predators to fly the border 24/7(They can find tunnels, drugs etc). Also send more choppers, planes and even fighter aircraft to patrol the borders. Send the National Guard from the various states to help with Boarder control and actually prosecute EVERYONE that is caught crossing illegally. Create some specially designed prisons in the desert in a couple states with very little luxuries and make them do hard time, breaking rocks, digging ditches etc. It is a Felony to enter illegally so give them a few years. If they get caught again then double sentance every time and make it to where they can NEVER gain citizenship if they are caught here illegally or crossing the border illegally.

Also every waterway that crosses the border (like this lake and part of the Rio Grande where the American man was assasinated recently and his wife attacked) Put Coast Guard bases there with larger heavily armed boats and several Guardsmen and officers. They are considered Federal Law Enforcement and can handle this piracy crap that is going on there and can protect the waterways better then anyone else. Drugs and cartels are coming across at an alarming rate and they are heavily armed with military style weapons, explosives and vehicles.

If he does those things I will start to respect him.

Who is a very successful business man and has helped a lot of people and charaties in his life. He can manage our economy better and also would strike fear in to our enemies.

I also guarantee he would not go on a world wide apology tour.

He also tried to strong arm an old woman out of her home for 70 yrs so he could build another casino, and she won! I am voting for either libertarians or green partiers simply because they are no dumbocRATS or repugnants, I might vote for someone in the tea party so long as its not Palin.

Ummmmmm no. I am familiar with the incident. There was an old lady who just lost her busband and the bank was going to forclose on her because she couldn't pay the bills since her husband was the primary source of income. The bank would not let up and were evicting her when a mysterious donor paid the complete note(The mysterious donor was found out to be Donal Trump later)

The bank wouldn't accept it and was going to boot her out. Donald Trump then contacted the bank and told them who he was and he offered to pay the note. Ther bank manager refused so Donald Trump introduced him to his lawyers.

End result, the little old lady kept her house and property the bank manager and loan officer lost their job and the media distorted this fact. It was well documented in his book "The Art of the Deal" and other noted works.

Donald Trump is someone I know a lot about. He has been an idol of mine for as long as I could remember. Probably 6 or 7. I grew up in a Real Estate and Construction enviornment and in the 80's he was constantly talked about. I used to listen to his audio tapes with my dad and his employees. My dad even got to meet him in the late 80's.

The Donald has also apparently been looking at property in the Reno and Lake Tahoe Area for a new project.

i'm not saying I don't like the don, but as president...hmmm, I don't think so.

It's worth a try, he has more business, foreign relations and practical experience then Obama, my only concern is the lack of military experience.

I also like Trumps No Holds Barred Attitude

right...BO has so much more military experience than the don!

what foreign relations or 'practical' experience does Trump have

he is an extremely successful ceo, he runs the shots that make him personal profits, he doesnt run a democratic government which represents the CITIZENS,,,
