Time to Start Paying Attention, America!

I like how everybody pins everything on the President, as if he has the power to tell banks how to behave. Look to Congress, folks.

This.

The president isn't a one man army, they need their government to be involved in the process, leadership may be a skill, But it is one which requires co-operation from those around them.
How can a leader do their job if those under their command act belligerently?
Thus far, Obama has had major criticisms purely over the colour of his skin, one high profile person went so far as to ask where his birth certificate was in a low attempt to try and disprove Barack's claim to presidency.

You mention that it is now 2011, You seem to be forgetting just how bad in debt the United states of America really is, the government is looking to save 1 trillion over 10 years, the government is in a debt of 14 trillion dollars, How do you expect Obama to clear that monumental amount in only the short term he has been in power?
