What're your questions for the world?

EXTRA INFO ABOUT THE SITE:

Hey! This blog is about asking questions that're on my mind or that people may ask me. These are not little questions really and they can have multiple answers so feel free to answer them as you see fit. The whole point of the site is to have people think about the world and the way things are. If you don't agree with something I've said tell me why with a comment (you have to have a google account), but please don't use that as a way to be obnoxious. Everything is pretty much up in the air when it comes to what you think and how you feel about something so I can't really set down any guidelines other than don't be too judgmental of another comment or of something I may have said.

Stay open-minded and hear people out. =]

Hope you enjoy and don't criticize what I'm trying to say too harshly. Although of course I'm open to criticism and debates. =]

Also...Email me @: tomiahayes@yahoo.com if you have a question you'd like to have posted on the site. Remember they have to be versatile and have many possible answers and they can't be...child-ish.

Why: Do So Many People Disapprove Of President Obama?

       I am completely baffled by the way people talk about Pres. Obama. It's as if they expected all the baggage that was left to him to just disappear once he was in office. Yes, he had the saying "Yes we can" and he told us what he was going to do while in office...But any person who took a U.S History class (which should be anyone 13 years or older at the least) should know that the president isn't the one with the power. He has to talk to many people and get their approval before he can do just about anything. So why is it that we blame him for every little thing that happens here in the U.S.?
       No, I'm not going to play the "Everybody is racist" card. Mainly, because I know that's not true. What I will say is that many, many people did not want this man in office...and yet here we are. Let me ask you this: Why do you think so many people voted for him? A lot of people would answer this question with "Because he's black". I'd just like to say that he's HALF black. So let's ask a better question...Why didn't as many people vote for McCain? You can't say because there are more black in the world because that's completely false. I'd like to point out that many black people didn't even vote for Obama. So..Why did this man of color win the 2008 election? Because he had a VISION that people wanted to see happen. And because so many people wanted to see it happen may just be the reason he's taking on so much heat. But a vision is a vision. It's not reality, it's a thought. 
       How many Republicans do you think wanted Democrat Barak Obama's vision to come true? How many times did he offer something, put something on the table, and have it rejected? Can you really say he didn't try to make it all come together? So why disapprove of him as our President? 
       Seriously...Why?
