President Barack Obama  

YES! He run for candidacy, Voted by the people, WON!

I think it's kinda late to answer those questions.

HE IS THE PRESIDENT. Hope for the best. =) PEACE ^^V

Well, he did win so I guess in the most basic sense, yes he does deserve to be president. as to his ideology and the views he has and the direction he wishes to take the country, well, thats a whole other ball game.
I dont't identify with either of the two big political parties and I believe one can count on one hand the number of decent honest, truly constitution fearing represenatives and senators in congress.
I beliecve Obama is just a continuation of the same thing thats been wrong with this coubntry right along. we got another Bush, who was a nother clinton, who was another bush...and so on. How is it we scream for change yet vote in one of the same two parties every single election?
No, I do not feel Obama is the direction this country needed to go, it was a stomp on the accelerator in the same wrong direction we have been going. It's too bad, what a tragic figure he is. He could have lead this country to true greatness, his talents are instead wasted on authoritarian ideology and a complete seperation of everything our founders stood for.
