Whod'a thunk?
Why do people always blame the President for economic woes?
Why not Congress? They're the ones with the lawmaking and taxing abilities. The Presidency actually has rather limited powers, compared to Congress. I think we should be looking at them a little more closely.
Oh I agree for the most part but he shouldn't make promises he can't keep now should he?
No, he shouldn't.
But what if he very much intended to keep them, and Congress was deadlocked or he couldn't persuade them to his side?

Who Is Responsible For Lack of Fiscal Cliff Action?Since the Congress passes laws and the President just signs them, shouldn't Congress pass a law that averts the fiscal cliff and put the onus on the President to either sign it or veto it? That seems to be the best way to get some serious...

Maybe the word hate is a little strong. So why do people dislike President Obama and the way he is running the country? Are you an Obama fan? Yes, no, what is your opinion of Obama and his policies?

What do you think of the stalemate between the Reps and Dems in confirming Trumps cabinet?It appears Democrats are planning to vote against Trump's appointees. Is this a good strategy? What will come of it?
