I am glad he won, but some people are acting like he is the second coming. I know everyone is caught up in the excitement of the first AA president - but put that aside and realize that he is still a politician, he will break promises, he will make people angry and he will not be able to solve many of the issues we are facing today. He is not a miracle worker and surprise! he is not the first AA person to achieve and inspire. Part of it is his fault for building expectations and false hope.
I don't want to be a downer, but he isn't GOD! |
Are you sure???
Some people do not even believe there is a god, or in more then one god... |
Time will tell...... |
No, he's the black Jesus |
I see where the OP is coming from.
Obama sure could talk the talk. Now, I'm just waiting to see if he can walk the walk. I heard someone say that Obama was given the presidency, not a magic wand. That was a good way to think of it. |
Expectations do seem quite high. |
One would hope that we have the patience to support our chosen president during these difficult years to come. Sometimes I think we're an impatient country; we need immediate gratification. We really have to see him through and NOT expect immediate results. Remember that there's been a lot of damage done by former leaders. |
It is beyond exciting he has been elected, but the pressure on him is unbelievable. I would not want to be him now...yikes. |
Where are the blacks and the women and Jews in the cabinet? Looks like "God" decided to bring the Clinton crew back into power. Yuk.
|
Not a single cabinet position has been filled yet--have a little faith! |
The one appointment that has been made - Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel - is an orthodox Jew! Good grief. |
Hey, Bill Clinton appointed a huge number of women, blacks and jews. Obama, on the other hand, won't. |
Why are you saying this? Do you know something we don't???? |
Come on people - Chief of Staff is not a cabinet post! |
Come on PP - read closely. I said the first appointment, I didn't say it was a cabinet post! I think most people know that Chief of Staff isn't a cabinet post. |
