1. Did you vote for President Obama?
Yup
2. Do you feel he is knowledgeable about foreign relations?
Knowledgeable, yes. Doing things the way I'd like, not exactly. That happens with every pres though.
3. Are you happy with the way he is handling the "War" that isn't a war in the Iraq and Afghanistan?
I don't know what I would be happy with, but I think he's doing most of what he has to do given what he started with. We'll see.
4. Do you feel he has helped or hindered the US's image in the world? Why/How?
I think he has helped. I think that even though he's not doing brilliantly, people at least feel we're less idiotic and somewhat less likely to blow them up because Muslims live there.
5. How do you feel he's handled the BP oil spill situation?
I don't like the grandstanding that any of them are doing (both sides), but I'm one of those who thinks that most of the things he can do (getting Coast and National Guards to the scene and helping where they can) are being done.
6. Do you feel like he has lived up to the hype of his campaign?
Nope. Nobody would have though, and I always knew that.
7. What do you feel he has done "right" as the President?
Most of the issues he talked about have at least been moved on. I never thought anything was going to change in a snap of the fingers, so I'm still not willing to call him a Failure because he didn't shake our govt upside down.
8. What do you feel he has completely missed the mark on as president?
Managing to keep some sort of inspiration going. And again, the wars don't make me happy, but that's a bit of Iraq and a Hard Place. Ahaha.
9. Do you believe that we'd be in a full fledged depression if he hadn't pushed through those bail-out and stimulus packages? If no, why not?
I still can't decide. I do believe that measures of that sort were necessary, but it's almost more about the psychology than any kind of physical money flow. I don't think they managed to get the positivity flowing very well, so maybe it could have gone better. That said, this has been a very busy spring, whereas I could have closed up shop last fall for all the work I had coming in. We're doing well.
10. If you answered YES to #1, and the election was in November, would you vote for Obama again?
If McCain/Palin were the alternative, YES.
How do YOU feel about President Obama?

I regret not voting for Hillary instead of Obama. I don't regret voting for Obama over McCain at all

You didn't know that you could be 17 and vote in the primaries either, eh? *NM*

His colossal failure as a President reinforces my opinion that Palin would be worse.
