I am not one to dig too deep into politics, but I too can have my opinion. Last month I went to buy my parents birthday cards and I couldn't believe how many birthday cards they had that made fun of President Obama and his office. I understand not everyone is going to like the president or agree with him, but when did that give people the right to be disrespectful?
My personal thoughts on Obama is that too many people are expecting this man to fix decades of mistakes...in four years. I voted for Obama because he represented something different. His thought process was different, his ideas were different and I wanted to see a change in our leadership. I didn't expect him or anyone else that was running to be able to get the country out of debt in four years. However, I wanted to see somebody try something new...regardless if it failed or not.
Like I said, I know everyone is not going to like the president or agree with his plans. However, as an American, living in the United States, I think he deserves respect from us all. Change takes time and it also takes a combined effort from the president AND the people. If you disagree with what the president is doing...that's fine. What are YOU doing to try to help then? Picture yourself in a position of leadership...how would you want to be treated? What would you want/need from the people you are overseeing? Just a thought...take it as you like.
