1. Did you vote for President Obama?
No. I'm foreign.
But if I had the ability to vote in the US, I would of course have voted for him. Not because he is so amazing in himself, but because the alternative was too horrible to be imagined.
2. Do you feel he is knowledgeable about foreign relations?
Yes.
3. Are you happy with the way he is handling the "War" that isn't a war in the Iraq and Afghanistan?
I have to say I have stopped paying attention to it. It is a mess, a mess that I don't really think anyone can fix at this point, and reading about it these days only depresses me.
4. Do you feel he has helped or hindered the US's image in the world? Why/How?
Helped.
5. How do you feel he's handled the BP oil spill situation?
Another thing that just depresses me.
I think he is being unfairly criticised over it (doing too much AND too little &c.), and that he started out fine, but did some perhaps less helpful things in response to the criticism. But the ... line he is going is one I like in this.
6. Do you feel like he has lived up to the hype of his campaign?
Heh. No. Mainly because he still hasn't walked on water.
7. What do you feel he has done "right" as the President?
See, it is not so much a matter of doing "right" as it is a matter of not doing horribly wrong. That is all I look for in American presidents.
8. What do you feel he has completely missed the mark on as president?
See above.
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?
Yes, I imagine so. Money breeds money. Which is why I have no idea what George Osbourne thinks he is doing these days.
10. If you answered YES to #1, and the election were in November, would you vote for Obama again?
Given the choices, hell yes.
