To think that Obama really has done NOTHING is.. just not correct. Even I admit Bush did stuff, lol? Have any of you who think he's done nothing actually payed attention to all of the bills and things he's done? I'm just really confused because I don't even watch the news and I hear about what he's up to!
Here's a quote from another forum just because I don't want to go and look up everything:
I don't know what I think about this, though. I think he hasn't FULLY deserved it yet, but it's not always for things that are complete yet. I'm glad he's being awarded though!
Here's a quote from another forum just because I don't want to go and look up everything:
Obama has to date fulfilled 47 of his campaign promises, with 116 in the works, 12 are stalled, and compromised on 12 to get them into play. 321 are awaiting action and only 7 have not been kept which you can review on politifact. I would say that's a pretty good track record for being in office for 9-10 months.
As far 'unifying' anything, I'm pretty sure these qualify or at least have helped?
1. He's signed the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities
2. Appointed a special adviser to the president on violence against women
3. Directed military leaders to end war in Iraq
4. Gave a speech at a major Islamic forum in the first 100 days of his administration
5. Granted Americans unrestricted rights to visit family and send money to Cuba
6. Established an Energy Partnership for the Americas
7. Pushed for enactment of Matthew Shepard Act, which expands hate crime law to include sexual orientation and other factors
8. Rebuilt schools in New Orleans
