Part of the reason why people love him so much is he's opening up the government to greater levels of transparency and getting ordinary people involved in the political process.

Has anybody else takin notice to the almost scary trust and belief in barack obama. The media has backed him from the beginging, he can seemingly do no wrong. Whenver i criticize him people immeadiately jump all over me for being racist, there remains undying trust in this unknown man. You are looked down upon for disagreeing with barack, almost as if you are crazy for not agreeing with him. The democrats control just about all of washington, and whatever you party affiliation, that is a very scary situation. Obama is treated like a god, all of the merchandise, the overblown inuaguration, the campaign slogan "change" which required no specification. What im trying to say is that america is vulnerable, people are looking for a leader an icon, and i fear that barack obama has become a man who is infallible.

You Barack supporters do realize that he is a strong proponent of socialism right. Im not using the term in a deregatory sense, but in a time of recession he will ruin the economy.

All this is talking out of the ass.  Supporting big business isn't the same thing as supporting people who have proven to screw up big business in selfish interest.  Showing a backbone enough to depose such people is the only thing I would support.  Democrat or republican doesn't matter.  Taxing is irrelevant.  Using economic leverage to depose those proven to to be unadaptable (Auto industries, petrol and media moguls).

We'll see.  America has repeatedly expressed a desire to end bullshit prohibiton.  We'll see if he really is sensitive to the concerns of other or just high paying lobbyists.

So far he has ignored the #1 issue presented to him by the people.

People still criticize him, and some even hate him. I think after bush, people are more than willing to put their faith in him to change things. Not blind faith either, the media still criticizes the good things he's done. Not just feux news, I'm talking msnbc and others...

---

There is no such thing as non blind faith.Given how little Obama has accomplished in his short time as a senator.A LOT of faith is put on him. Which is funny because that's what people criticized Bush and the republicans for, and rightfully so.

But now you are doing it. Only in a even worse way if it was possible. The slogans,disgusting amounts of paraphernalia,the empty zombie like chants it's quite hysterical Yet scary like the OP said.

All I have to say is that people need to wait until any president has done some shit before they can say he is a savior or whatever. I think the bulk of people supporting him are just overly excited that bush is out and we have a democrat for once.

We'll have to see how his presidency plays out, but I think he's given every reason to believe that he'll not only be a good president, but a great one.

I agree, thats why people are 'worshiping' him in the first place. All this anti-Christ stuff just makes me laugh even though there are a few parallels.

I feel like if you could stand to be in america the past 8 years with bush what is so scary that obama could do? I just don't see it is malicious or greedy...

The primary concern with government is the scope of it's power. Most government action can be boiled down to the invention is economic affairs. Democrats generally support a greater involevemnt in economic affrairs. When ecomic stuff goes south they will implement increased control over your life. It is inivietible. That is why the left is considerably worse.

I hate alochol, it makes me want to converse, but i can;t express myself.

I find it ironic that so many of the people here who are scared of the cult of personality behind Obama display the same kind of unthinking idol worship toward Ron Paul.
