"A majority of Americans now oppose giving President Obama a second term, reflecting the country's continued weak economic performance, according to the latest IBD/TIPP survey released Monday. By 51%-41%, respondents in October picked "someone new deserves a chance" over Obama "deserves to be re-elected." Among independents, it was 54%-36%. Back in September, the readings were 50%-44% and 53%-38%, respectively." http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/Article/587521/201110100805/51-Dont-Want-Second-Term-For-President-Obama.htm4 Years ago the nation was in awe as a fresh brand new candidate was running for President against a washed out old timer from Arizona. This new candidate promised to change the country for the good and bring in a new era of government that would transform our way of thinking. It has been 3+ years since this new candidate has won the Presidency and the man and the ideas are now on the downfall as Americans fight back against the status quo.
At this moment only 41% of American voters would vote for Barack Obama for a second term. This obviously is not good news for a President who went into the White House extremely popular because of his youth and race. People had high hopes for a President that would bring about change in our economy and our foreign affairs. However, he has failed on both fronts and the people in this country are tired of the same. President Obama has failed to fix the economy.
Americans are still out of jobs and all he can do is blame the Republicans in Congress for his failures.
The war in Afghanistan is still banging hard even though this President promised to end that war when he took office. More American lives are still being lost and now the "peace" President is continuing this effort while still holding a Nobel Peace Prize he was awarded at the beginning of his Presidency. Change is coming, but the change that most are use too will be different than 4 years ago.
Real change is essential or our country will be on the downfall.
