    I believe he is doing a good job as President. Having the tough job of trying to clean up our economy and all other crisis that emerge not considering what a mess our last President has left us in. Mr. Obama is exceding my expectations, and I love his realist attitude, no bs.

    I also think he has grown in the past year also; he is really striving to address our keys issue health care, employment, and get our troops safely home and I also feel he is listening to his key adviors to help make our world better

    To those railing aginst the "socialism" being foisted on innocent Americans by our president: Seriously folks, it is possible to have social programs without being a socialist nation. Medicare anyone? Social Security? I don't see too may Americans lining up to send those checks back to Washington. And if socialized medicine makes a country socialist, someone should inform the Canadians, and the French, Germans, Danish, pretty much everyone else in the developed world. And they thought they were living in a democracy. Thanks for "educating" us.

    The president is doing the best he can the economy was filty when he went in now people expect him to fix it now. People in the world like to pretend . You need to put the lord back in the school and give thank unto the true and living god.

    Considering the hand he was dealt and the problems he inherited from our previous president, Obama has been doing a fair job in my opinion. He's new at this so the first year helped him to his feet wet. Hopefully, this year, he is more comfortable in his position and can show and prove. He still has my support. No one is perfect the first year at any job. You need to time to learn, adjust, and get comfortable. This second year should be interesting.
