I almost never post in any political thread but I really have to say something here. I don't understand why most of people here think that if you answered 'no' you are thinking about Obama being assassinated? Wrong assumption!
I answered 'no' for a different reason: I believe that President of the U.S. does not have any real power therefore his assassination would not serve any purpose. The real power lays with the U.S. senate and lobbyists. According to Obama's claims that is exactly what he wants to crack down on. The reason behind me voting 'no' in the poll is that I believe that Obama is a dreamer and idealist and is in need of reality check. I believe that he will not make it through his first term because he will get indicted on some bullsh*t charge when he decides to not play along with lobbyists.
We have seen it in this country before. If you can indict one president because he was given a head and then leave war-mongering lying criminal run this country until the end of this term unpunished then there's no real justice here.
Personally I think that this poll is not really serving any purpose and should be closed.
But that is just me...

BTW I really hope that I am wrong and Obama will find the way how to turn this country around but unless there is a SERIOUS change to the system he's got a snowball's chance in hell.
