Who Coulda Known? Mistakes Were Made... He will do a "Chess Move" ......just wait and see...

Somebody made him do it......???

"We have misinterpreted this from a Biased News Article.....this isn't what he said.....The Video was before he knew what he was faced with and he and we were too idealistic...but, when one is President" things change. We don't know what he was up against...and who forced him to make decision.....He has Done the Best He Could with the "hand he was dealt" after Bush II...... We have to understand that NO President is all Powerful...the MSM/MIC/Wall Street and the Rest are what any Elected President has to deal with.....The Republicans have thwarted all of his efforts to make good on his Campaign Promises since DAY ONE! He had to work within the system or he wouldn't have been able to pass the ACA."

"All American Presidents are Under Attack from Faux News and the Machines that work Against Democrats" and Unless we Elect MORE AND BETTER DEMS....we will NEVER get our Country Back.

Please MAKE SURE YOU GET OUT AND VOTE for 2016 so we can take DEMOCRACY BACK for THE PEOPLE........

I'll keep working ....but, it does get harder every time these days.......

IF ONLY we could get back to POLICY in our VOTES and NOT ...PERSONALITY and FAUX NEWS/RW Clown Cars and DEFENSIVENESS and now real "NATIONAL DEFENSE" as more important than what goes on here AT HOME, for the PEOPLE.
