Obama had his chance ? I can only see that republicans began to run amok as soon as he was elected into office. He is an islamist, he was not born in the US, block all he does, he is satan, whatever.
All major companies and organisations that somehow control or at least influence America were against him, only they did not have the majority in votes. Not to speak about the open hate that broke its way into the media and was watched with irritation worldwide. You know what to think about Fux news, but shots came from all sides USA.
He did NOT get the important things through. What he did was listening to those spin doctors telling him to continue Bush's war against terrorists, only using drones now and killing civilians as collateral damage.

1. He thought he could turn the rudder around, and idiot that he was expected America to understand and support him - "his dream".

2. The real important things he tried to get through the senate were blocked, just for the "fun" of blocking and destroying, being counter-constructive against anything democrate regardless what would be good for the nation. If Obama said he liked the american flag republicans would burn it.

3. The same presidential advisors that already advised Bush are in charge, big money. Along with the CIA it seems some never trusted him, Obama's fault was not to fire them instantly, but he obviously thought he needed their knowledge and thought it would be the best for the nation.

He did not get his own plan through, there is just too much resistance by the folks really in charge. However he did get some things through:
A lot of the eastern world has now also declared war to the terrorists coming from their very countries. Supporting Libya. Making an offer to the islamic world was one of the right things to do, even if thought out by the Bush administration. Unemployment in the US is falling, it already began a few months ago. As well changes need time to take effect.

I really don't know how the next president will look like, and how the nation as a whole will support him - or not.

In Germany with the middle class breaking away there will be a scissor-like development, lots of poor and a few real-rich. I do not think this is something to look forward to.
