23. Good points.
I think the big problem is that some just can't understand that the president has to set is priorities, and those priorities won't always be the same as ours are. He is only human, and can only do so much. He has to fight not only the republicans, but democrats who are in the pockets of big corporations and don't want to lose all the corporate money! I think maybe we need to take a closer look at those in congress who are democrats who are not doing what they should for the people. Until we can get rid of those who are backed by money from insurance companies, drug companies, etc., we are not doing to get anything done, no matter how hard the president tries. It is going to take some time, and change doesn't only start at the top, but has to work down to congress, and then on down to the state levels.
