Because he inherited this mess, tried and failed to clean it up, which anyone else would have done too. But I think at this point he has the best chance to steer it in the right direction. There's NO ONE else viable at this point.
That's a very interesting take on what happened. The right direction you say? Hmmmm. Interesting and horrifying because it is such a wildly inaccurate depiction of reality. He inherited a mess and turned it into a catastrophe. He lied through his teeth to get elected (transparency, bipartisanship, colorblind/ post racial America) and then doubled down on stupid by continuing the worst policies of his predecessor while intentionally weakening America's standing in the world. He has killed more jobs and taken more money out of the American economy than the recession (which never ended by the way) ever did. He has spent nearly his entire presidency vacationing, playing golf and holding mock press conferences with hand picked questions where he muses about how smart he is and how "UnAmerican" it is to disagree with him. He began running his reelection campaign about 6 months after he was elected and he spends the majority of his time mindlessly droning on and on with leftist ideological horse manure in a deranged and bizarre attempt to pretend he is working hard to get things moving in the right direction and that DC is "broken". Was DC broken when this idiot got elected? How about when the left had a near monopoly on the legislative branch? When everything was all hopey changey?
Now that his policies and worldview have been irrefutably proven to be abject failures, you think he is in the best position to " steer it in the right direction"? Do you mean that he is the best person to steer the country off a cliff and kill everyone?
He was unqualified and unprepared for the job. He surrounds himself with radical marxist trash and career sleezebucket politicians that tell him how handsome and articulate he is instead of advising him on how to fix the country.
If you consider 9+% unemployment viable, a trillion in waste pissed away on "stimulus" viable, a credit downgrade viable and a healthcare plan that will permanently destroy America as we know it viable, then you need your head examined, or you hate America. Six of one, half a dozen of the other.
