If you can not see that people's disillusionment with the idiocy and ineptitude of Obama gives rise to their willingness to elect Phineas T Barnum there is little hope for you.

oh to live in your imaginary world where the issues can be boiled into simple one line answers.

holy sh!t, you should look up the word simple while you've got your dictionary open.

I know that, but English doesn`t use `sinister` for `left`;

Obama is great reading the autocue but has been pretty much a disaster as president whatever way you look at it.

'yes we can' to no i didnt backtrack barack has been useless.

Ill close guantanamo bay on day one - you take that to the bank. 8 years later still open for business. No more wars im the nobel man of peace before troop surges in afghasnistan - america's longest running war, the constant slaughter with drones his terror tuesdays to quote 'im good at killing people' his shocking miscalculations in the middle east from libya to syria to iraq.

Domestically not much better, he has nearly doubled the national debt adding 10 trillion dollars worth of debt. Labour force participation rates at levels not seen since the 1970s when women were much less represented in the workforce. Wage levels no better than when he came into office. Productive jobs outsourced across the world to be replaced by low paid service jobs. Then there is the disaster of obama care. A president who was said to bind the racial divisions leaves office with the country more racially divided than it has been in decades.

You only need to see what americans think of him over 60% think the country is heading in the wrong direction sometimes the figure got as high as 75%. In elections over the 8 years the democrats have lost over 1000 state or federal positions. To quote Obama who canvessed heavily for clinton in the key states she lost 'its my legacy on the ballot'. Well the people showed what they thought of your legacy.

Washington (CNN): President Barack Obama delivered an impassioned plea to the African-American community Saturday night to help stop Donald Trump, saying he would consider it a "personal insult" to his legacy if black voters didn't turn out for Hillary Clinton.


Addressing the Congressional Black Caucus gala for the last time as president, Obama warned that while his name would not be on the ballot in November, all of the progress that the country has made over the last eight years was on the line.

- Sept 2016

Any speech is given to a wider audience that to the one spoken to directly. Here Obama was telling the whole of America that HIS LEGACY was on the line. He was effectively saying : 'if you approve of my 8 years, vote Clinton'. (Of course he was also being foolishly racist: 'vote as the black man tells you'.)

Nothing could be clearer. America wanted to distance itself from the Obama years. The fact that he lacks the grace to admit that is a disgrace.

odds on you see Trump in Red Square by the end of Feb

Obama the same man that tried to put the frighteners on us before our Referendum,

Yes smartie very bitter - but as we've clearly found out over the last year, this
breed can only have things the way they want

this breed?

Qualified only by colour. Flushed down the toilet of history!

you can always find someone...

asparagus can you give any examples of what obama has done to improve the usa?

Why will trump be a disaster?

A very poor President indeed.

Ford Motor Company announced Tuesday it will cancel a $1.6 billion plant planned for Mexico and will instead invest $700 million in a Michigan assembly plant, directly tying the decision to “pro-growth policies” championed by President-elect Donald Trump.

all part of the plot m8

Another week of cringeworthy embarrassment from Obama. Jeez, he is becoming beyond a joke.

Agree that Obama was a very average president,seemed to blame lack of time for reason he changed fa,8 years of indecision
Tried too hard to fit in and non trier on the real issues of healthcare,education etc good riddance ...

Seeing none of Obamas critics on here have ever lived and worked in the U.S
in the past 8 years I wouldn't listen to a word they say.
