president is more than unconstitutional‚ he is uncontrollable‚ too. President Obama is uncontrollable in his actions when illegal decisions are made more than once regarding Obamacare and when a large part of our government system is being questioned due to his disregard for the law. Obama went too far to get what he wanted. Checks and balances aren’t being taken seriously‚ if he can get away with it‚ so can everyone else. Obama unconstitutionally delayed the caps on payments without approval from Congress

Obama vs. Marx Alan Wolfe firmly believes that liberalism and socialism are not the same and it’s ludicrous to think that they are. I agree with this fully‚ they are two totally different political philosophies. Wolfe uses President Obama as his prime examples in comparing how these philosophies are indeed different‚ almost opposites. Take for instance his proposal for the healthcare reform. Obama’s form of liberalism would offer a healthcare program with several choices as opposed to a socialist

Barack Obama‚ “The Nation’s First Black President”‚ exists undoubtedly as one of the faces of our country’s continuous movement toward post-racism‚ but the questions of his impact toward our aspiring post-racial society diminishes his legacy. A common misconception claiming he’s made little progressions toward racial equality throughout his presidency leads to a sense of hopelessness and irrationalism.

This speech needs little introduction‚ and I think it is the most effective of all of Obama’s speeches. Why the most effective? It turned him from someone with massive potential who was known amongst political

Barack Obama. The Congress diversity of Democrats vs. Republican’s was very similar in both Clintons and Obamas time in office. There were many steps that were taken in creating this policy‚ and some of those steps succeeded‚ and some of those steps failed. Any new process would be expected to have some issues to work through as it was created. The Affordable Health Care Act still has some issues to work on‚ but many steps succeeded and that is why it has been implemented during Obamas term.
