Interesting perspective. I don't see the 2nd term of a presidency as all that, since there's still Congress to contend with, as well as the Supreme Court - checks and balances exist for a reason.
All of them, in theory, have to answer to The People. The problem is that the People haven't been properly informing themselves, or actively participating in the political process (% of the population that votes).
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

CG has an opinion, just like we all do. If you don't see a problem with all the ever changing stories, and the claims that nobody knew anything and still don't, then maybe you just don''t want to know the real truth (like most of the media). If Obama just had a press conference once in a while where he was forced to answer tough questions instead of "who are you rooting for in the world series?", we on the right wouldn't be nearly as skeptical.
The number one guy in charge had no idea the compound had prior attacks, didn't know they wanted more security, didn't know there wasn't a protest, didn't know calls for help during the attack were turned down, .... For a country that was just "liberated" with the primary help of the US, Obama sure doesn't know much does he? What's the point of us even having a president when all the important info never reaches his big ears?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
If this was CG's opinion, then maybe she needs to start using words like...in my opinion, or I think, I believe......you know, something that indicates opinion rather than stating it as fact.
