State of the Union Address

There has been a lot of talk about whether Obama has been effective in his Presidential term or not. Many bash him, many adore him; either way few could be him. During his State of the Union Address speech, he mentioned implementing ideas on building up the manufacturing industry. He touched up on issues between the Democrats and Republicans, but reminisced on his accomplishments.

His most memorable message that gripped my attention was when he said, and don't quote me, "a republican or a democrat, together as Americans, WE were able to get Osama and take him out. It didn't matter what status they held in society or where they came from, or which party they represented, we did it together."

If you look in the news or magazines, you will recognize how much of a people person Obama is. You will notice how down to earth he is; and because of those traits, I believe he has done an amazing job at turning a few things around after Bushe's Presidency. But ofcourse people do not see that you cannot change the world in one term, nor can you address all of the problems and wants of those in the United States in one term. Obama came into turmoil; a complete political and societal mess. And still, after his amazing speech and his commendable and legendary accomplishments, people had negative comments such as these that scream, YOU ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

I want to know what you guys think about him as a President. What are your comments on this video and do you agree? I feel like people look past the stats and judge him like they freakn personally know him. My opinion, if you do not know where he has gone wrong or if you have no knowledge on issues he has addressed and they ways in which he has addressed them, then where are you getting your opinions from...OTHER PEOPLE right? Which, in turn, really isn't yours...right?!
