American People are also to blame for your abysmal education system, Egocentric attitudes that AMERICA is always the Biggest, Best, Brashest doesn’t help. It is time to realise that USA needs to actually be taught some home truths.

Newsflash
Not all Americans have a GOOD education.
Not all Americans have a GOOD job.
Not all Americans have good health care.
Not all Americans get a FAIR deal from idiotic governments.
America has a MASSIVE National DEBT. It is far from being the wealthiest country.
America does not need to meddle in international politics, when it has no effective internal political structure.
BUT the Biggest Home TRUTH.
AMERICA is not the BOSS of the WORLD.
USA is NOT the only country in the world.

In 1776 Americans rose up in revolution to fight the oppressive political system and control of the IDIOTS (British Monarchy) in control at that time.

Now the only thing Americans do is whinge on the internet via blogs, forums and chatrooms or listen to idiot TV/RADIO shows like Larry King. Instead join a politic party or interest group. Be proactive not complacent. Remember the famous Abraham Lincoln speech at Gettysburg does not mention POLITICIANS
Quote:

and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth

To me the most important question is; is he doing a good job as president?

My answer was.

Exactly
I would rather OBAMA as leader of the United States of America than some ex-actor or tired old Hack Politician. Whatever Ethnic, Cultural or Religous background of the leaders parents, has little to do with his potential ability to lead. With his diverse background and resultant immense support amongst marginalized minorities, he WILL be remembered as one of the greatest Presidents the United States has ever had. Enjoy and embrace being alive during his term in office. Something to tell your grandchildren about in 20-30 years time.

Finger-pointing about his background is the sort of petty minded schoolyard crap that has infiltrated politics. Anyone that has trouble with OBAMA’s heritage should RE-Read the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence. Your country was founded on the principles of fairness and equitable treatment of ALL people
