Give credit where credit is closed (minded)...

Our President is arrogant!

Our President is incompetent!

Our President is spending too much!

Our President is a socialist!

...thanks, I have heard enough.

Our President is the symbol of change and potential fairness/equality for every single American.
-President Barrack Obama is America.

I'm not interested in what his birth certificate states.

Obama's campaign theme and catch phrase was so well created as "Hope."
President Obama embodies the concept of hope, indeed.

Less than a hundred years ago, a black man ran the risk of losing his life without any legal consequence for just looking at someone in a country he helped build and fight in a war for.

In 2010, a black man is the supreme leader of that same "free" world power.
To get to the position that this man has reached considering his background and race is literally "ground-breaking." And I think any American Historian would concede with my last statement. The Presidential office that a black man currently holds and what that means is, in my opinion, beyond the comprehension of most people living in this country.

President Obama is a walking cultural landmark.
He is a sentient collection of hope, change, and inspiration.


President Obama gives the minorities in this country a voice and that was voice was cast aloud with his victory in 2008.
His election also spoke on how powerful those minorities and the youth really are.
President Obama recognizes the needs of the youth, and every other American in this country that has been overlooked for many years.

President Obama's triumphs should be regarded and applied to as the further greatness of this country. African Americans should not be the only group of people motivated and inspired by the President's work. His climb to the very top of power in the United States of America just adds to the old cliche, "no matter what, whatever you put your mind and heart to, you can have." His story and the current home he raises his family in is a representation of the American Dream.
-His opportunity and the results of his plans equal freedom.

A"black" man in the "White" House is examplary of our Nation's move away from stagnate political dogma.

----Wow Wade, with all that praise you must approve of everything that President Obama is doing with our country, huh?
When your done with your romance sonnet there, why don't ya go save some trees or smoke a doobie or somethin'?

Do I personally agree and approve of all of Mr. Obama and his cabinet's decisions and policies? Not hardly...

Do I beleive that the President and his party's "agenda" is a sign of positive and bigger steps in a direction of stabilizing this country's nationwide handshake of mutual respect and catapulting global frienship? Yes.

Bash him all you want.... thats your freedom. But the man has done something that has never been done in American political history and his rise to power is the essence of your right(s) to read my blog.

  1. In the blog "Give credit where the credit is closed (minded)...," my fellow classmate Wade, writes that President Obama's "triumphs should be regarded and applied to as the further greatness of this country." He writes, "Our President is the symbol of change and potential fairness/equality for every single American." Although, Wade explains that he doesn't agree and approve of all President Obama's policies and decisions, but he does believe that "the president and his party's "agenda" is a sign of positive and bigger steps in a direction of stabilizing this country's nationwide handshake of mutual respect and catapulting global friendship."

    On the subject of President Obama, I couldn't disagree more with Wade. Okay yes, President Obama is our first African American president, and maybe he is a "walking cultural landmark," but can that make him a good president? I'm all for the U.S. having a non-white president in office as long he or she is fit for the job. Wade says that he's "not interested in what his birth certificate states." If Obama didn't have anything to hide, why wouldn't he show his birth certificate. Only American-born citizens can become president. If President Obama isn't a natural born citizen of the United States, he shouldn't be allowed the presidential seat.

    Wade also states, "President Obama is a sentient collection of hope, change, and inspiration." Hope? During elections, Obama gave many Americans hope. He promised that he would make more jobs and fix our economy. Has he done that? I don't think so. His hope is looking more like "false" hope. Change? Well yes, Obama is the first non-white president, that's a change. Going against the public opinion to try and pass socialized healthcare anyways, that's a change. More government spending which means a rise in taxes for American citizens, that's a change. He sure did promise "change." I just think Americans assumed it would be good change. Inspiration? Yes, President Obama has inspired many people. I'll give it to him. He's the first African American president. He's an inspiration to many minorities in our country. Congratulations, President Obama! You know, he's even inspired me. I am inspired to to truly fight for what I believe in, which opposes President Obama's beliefs. I am inspired to vote because I want to know that I had a part in trying to change his "change." President Obama, thank-you so much for being an inspiration!

    So Wade, I guess you are right. Obama really is a collection of (false) hope, (lousy) change, and (surprising) inspiration.
