How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?

A President is supposed to represent ALL of the people and BOTH parties, not just the liberal left.

No wonder Obama is NOT a leader but a whiner, typical of the victim ploy of the the liberal left and the black liberation theology that Obama spent 20 years of his life being brainwashed with.How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?he is an Affirmative action candidate, he believes the President is like a King and a King does not have to conform to others. Others must conform to the King.How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?
You are sadly mistaken if you believe Obama represents the "liberal left".



Obama is too center-right to be liberal. He's actually closer to being conservative, than liberal.



Truly, you must have no idea what a real "liberal" stands for.



And no, the President is NOT supposed to "represent all of the people". He is supposed to lead the country. The "people" are represented in Congress.How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?Oh yeah...Bush was great at that. You think I felt like Bush represented me? Bush represented one group - the far right.



Why the hypocrisy all of the sudden? I think you were just fine with Bush not representing the left.



As a leftist, Obama doesn't represent me. He's too conservative.
nonsense. Every president is elected by some portion of the voting public. That election validates his personal ideology as the choice of the people. He then has the DUTY to act as the people have chosen.



He was elected as a liberal, he is obligated to behave as one.How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?dude Obama isn't the onlye one that does this, all of our presidents do this. None of them represent the people anymore. Where the heck have you been? This is been going on since before you and I were even born. Wake up and smell the coffee...they don't work for us.....How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?
Obama represents most moderates silly... the Left isn't all that pleased as they are extreme, the right isn't pleased because they are extreme.
Ok so where were you when Bush only represented the radical right?



Sorry but you do not always get your way in a democracy. Grow up.How come Obama only represents the liberal left and not the American people?
obama is not liberal he's a f****g consevative.
Forget about the label gimmick and discuss issues.
According to Obama, it's because Americans are his enemy.
Since when politicians represent people?
He only cares about his own agenda.
Oh you have to love american politics.



Just full of people pretending they know what they are talking about.



I bet you did not give a damn when Bush was doing everything he could, not even for the right, but for the amazingly rich right. He ignored all but 0.00001% of the people.



But then is it his fault that he can get away with that. Is it his fault that a system that was designed to prevent this sort of thing happens? Is it his fault that congress panders to the big money, because the people are draw into nice TV ads, and big bill boards, and idiotic policies, rather than the reality of the situation?



US politics is broken. The American Dream is long lost. The aspirations and dreams of the founding fathers have been buried so deap underground that there is no trace left. I paint a sad picture, but it is true.



The first amendment exists so that people could talk politics freely. Yet even with this free talking politics, even with this freedom of religion, the right attacks a president because he has a muslim sounding middle name. WHere is the politics in this? Where is the freedom in this? People don't have a choice. They can either vote for A) Republican who goes for the big money, votes for the big money and claims he is representing his people or B) Democrat who goes for the big money, votes for the big money and claims he is representing his people, or C) An idiot extreme right winger who thinks it's great they are getting so much damn attention and money from the same people who give it to A or B, yet their policies are so bizarre and so out of touch with reality that it is laughable.



What is that for a choice? The US need Proportional Representation as soon as possible. It needs smaller parties to have a say, to hold the government to account, to make sure that separation of state, checks and balances and morality in government are kept in check.



The presidency needs to stop being a popularity contest, but that is a harder thing to do, maybe go back to the old system and have the senate choose, but then the senate elections become a popularity contest.



America is becoming a world joke because it cannot even govern itself properly any more.



Presidents go after the middle ground, not the far left or the far right, if they do they will get destroyed, Obama can only hope that Palin gets the nomination for presidencial candidate!! He'll kick her ****!
