Melly - The competence of a president (and said thing is highly disputable) shows only while they're in office dealing with things, not by what they say they will do in an election campaign.

as always as americans really don't have much choice but to believe and trust in the "system" at this point and not just who is in the oval office. i can't help to think that along with the important issues mentioned above, at stake is the supreme court positions that need to be replaced during Obama's term and that will certainly have a huge effect for years down the road. I strongly believe that the adminstration of the last 8 years has set this country back in many ways by 20+ years, and the recovery of such will be long and hard, unfortnately what Barrack is faced with is quite terrifying to think about.
