As for standards, Obama is a career politician who did nothing for his constituents on the southside of Chicago who he was elected to serve. These poor victims of the housing projects were even made homeless while he allowed Tony Rezko to assist him with the purchase of a million dollar mansion in Chicago’s prestigious Hyde Park where his neighbor is none other than the Who’s Who of terrorists…..Bill Ayers.

Our standards are too low and there needs to be some accountability because if there are not policies for everyone to “EARN INCOME”…..then we cannot build wealth to change family trees!

As for as a grandiose speech “HOPE-CHANGE” was nothing more than a pipe dream bestowed unto mankind by mainstream media, hollywood eletes, local politicians and many others who decided to interject race rather than allow a man’s work to speak for himself.

Obama’s handlers sure worked hard for “PO-US” title which may explain why the stimulus money went to bail out Wall Street rather than Main Street!

No one should be sitting around waiting on the government to do for them what they could be doing for themselves! Everyone should be acquiring knowledge to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps and stop following crooked politicans who have nothing in their past to suggest that they will do anything remotely like the speeches they deliver by way of teleprompter.

Our standards are too low. When Obama is speaking to us on moral standards its because those are problems we have. We are the ones with our pants hanging below our butts, having kids out of wedlock, celebrating artists that think its cool to get drunk and go drive (lil wayne, gucci mane etc..), glorify killing each other, dancing half naked on videos, and getting tattoos like bballers and rappers and wondering why we can’t get a job. If whites have this problem its not as prevalent and if it is like I said he is speaking to us about it because he expects more from us. It would be nice to hear some grand ol speech where everything he says is uplifting but to be completely honest the African Americans he needs to talk to have those problems and they are the ones he is speaking to. But people get angry when you KEEP IT REAL with them nobody wants to hear that kind of stuff so they say “he talking down on us, who he think he is.” The man is president and he has high standards for US. HIS PEOPLE, BLACK PEOPLE. Its not talking down its asking you to do better PERIOD.
hE came from a single parent home so that excuse doesn’t work on him.

And why not pay him the respect of calling him President Obama. That’s not making him out to be some king its just giving him the title he has worked for and earned. Its respect.

I can’t speak for what Obama should or shouldn’t do. All I know is we don’t need to wait for him or any president to do anything for us. I am from a single parent home and I have seen friends who came from better who just chose to make ignorant decisions because it was the cool thing to do and now they are paying for it. THEY ALSO SAID THE SAME THING WHENEVER SOMEONE SPOKE TO THEM IN A RESPECTFUL WAY ABOUT THINGS THEY CAN DO TO BETTER THEMSELVES. This is what we have to get away from.

And I’m not saying we don’t need to hold him accountable and if you paid attention to him during his campaign he said he maynot solve all the issues when he is in office but hopefully he will get started and someone else can finish them. He has recently put a plan into action to bring the troops home and alot of the defense spending money will go towards domestic issues such as jobs. Its easy to say he hasn’t done anything and not provide any real solutions.
