Will history see President Obama as a president, a great president, or just the first black president?
Since what we are seeing now in the news and negative comments about him and how he is taking too long. He will have a big change just being seen as a the first black president who persuaded people to choose him but never really made a change.

Is President Obama the new Jimmy Carter?
You are forgetting that I am for healthcare reform Fry, I'm just saying that it is not popular in the polls right now and it is showing in Obama's approval ratings as well as Congressional approval ratings. Please try not to sound to haughty Fry you really are coming off as a know-it-all right now.

Given his record thus far, was President Obama a bad affirmative action hire?
Everyone should knock it off on the race business, everyone. Focus on the facts of the issues instead and then try to validate them. There is plenty of controversy in the issues and attacking the president on basis of race is just wrong. Sure there are folks in every race and religion that will make personal baseless arguments but stick with facts on policy.

Has President Obama done a good job so far in your opinion?
Please try not to be biased when you answer, I consider myself a Democrat for the most part, although there are somethings I disagree on. However, other than maybe watering down his ideas too much, I think he has done an alright job. I'm not really happy at how he has compromised his plans so much, I think by compromising so much to get Republican votes a lot of his ideas have become almost nothing more than doing nothing. However, as I said before, I still strongly support President Obama.

Should President Obama refrain from using Negro dialect in his upcoming SOTU address?
I'll be waiting for Michael Steele's "hip hop" response to the speech. He's much better at reaching out to the "hood" than Obama, and it seems to come so naturally to him!
