I am not even sure he is a good politician.For being a very good politician (he's proven that with his ascendancy to the presidency in such short time), he's got a tin ear on some issues and picked some very bad things to take (the wrong) stand on. Being on the wrong side of illegal immigration is a horrible political position at a time when so many are struggling to find work.

Versus your typical Obama voter who voted for him just because of the color of his skin?
Doesn't matter though, this poll shows just how hated Obama is and it's only getting worse with each passing week and everytime he opens his mouth and pisses off the country even more.
There's a very simple reason why knowing stuff about history matters when it comes to picking politics. You cannot make good decisions without knowing what works and what does not. History is the best source of information for that.That's not pathetic at all. Who cares if someone knows what FDR's programs were called? Who cares who Susan B Anthony was? etc. Sure, I think it's important to know history and have a basic understanding of how government works (or doesn't!) and all that, but it doesn't really have anything do with whether someone can pick a candidate or not, and it has nothing to do with a "social conscience" (not even sure what that means anyway).
You had to ask? Are you from Ohio? Of course it is based on my opinion.
If Obama was white, he'd have completely buried McCain and the Caribou Barbie, kinda like Johnson buried Goldwater in 1964. He'd likely enjoy more widespread support, as well.
One of those "Values" things...
It's not just "our voters", it's voters everywhere. Knowing stuff about civics doesn't mean you can't evaluate character, and that you don't have a basic political philosophical view. You don't need to know all the nuances and inns and outs of politics to understand promises made (kept or broken), and you don't need to know the candidate's entire platform if you know their stance on certain key issues. If you vote based on one or two key issues, then all the other stuff essentially becomes irrelevant to you.
Lets face it, the vast majority of people are not poly-sci nerds, nor should they need to be. They should be able to watch the news periodically, read a paper every now and again to keep up with things. Any more than that is generally the domain of poly-sci nerds, and the general public doesn't care.
I guess we will never know as there is no chance he will ever be:
White.
Smart.
Personable.
Re-elected.
Lol someone who got into hardvard law on merit isn't smart now?
Holy shit.
So you believe that if Bush was still in office things would be better?Show the fucking transcript.
The fact remains is that peoples lives were much better under Bush than Obama and people reasonably would prefer those good times than the sheer misery of the obama economy.
Think about where each of you were at 4 years ago under Bush, then compare to now.

Absolutely guarantee it. Look at how well he handled the small blip or two he came across. He certainly wouldn't be running around the country telling business how evil they are and how the federal government is going to get them (typical obama speech).
Oh, and that whole 9/11 and the economic affects afterward. Never Forget.

Sometimes I wonder if Spidey actually believes what he says, or if he's one of the greatest trolls this forum has ever seen? Most trolls eventually crack and let slip that they don't believe the things they're saying.

Although I don't post much, I do have to say that I believe he's insane. I remember his posts being somewhat coherent during the last administration and then just becoming asinine after Obama's election.
That heavy white robe and hood have taken their toll on poor old spidey ...

And the fact remains, 50-42% People in Ohio want Bush back. They are far from an outlier. I just don't think you libtards realize how much he is despised by most of this country.
Watch all of the political ads coming, most all of them are going to tie the dem to Obama and relate them, it's a winning strategy. Every time Obama stumps for a dem, the dem loses. He's the kiss of death for campaign. The dem in my senate race won't get near him and even told Obama to stay away.
