[from the comments]
Obama has been a disaster for ordinary US citizens and a boon for the corporate elites. He continued the anti-capitalist bailout of the nefarious banksters; continued the highly lucrative (for the corporations) wars and occupations abroad; instituted nirvana for the health insurance companies at home via Obamacare; and by protecting the US clandestine services at all costs he destroyed the US constitution, e.g. totalitarian surveillance, persecution of whistle blowers. And all for the corporations: wars and coups to destroy obstacles to corporate profits (e.g. governments and competitors ,e.g. Ukraine is all about the EU energy market); total surveilance to protect the new corporate totalitarian state (e.g. all that data is about blackmailing any potential democratic opposition, even the man himself, Obama, was spied on as a senator by the NSA); corporate totalitarianism at home enabled by a militarized policeforce, a gestapo-like DHS, corporate friendly laws defended by a corporate friendly Surpreme Court (e.g. laws that protect Monsanto from regulators and judgements handed down by ex-Monsanto lawyers). The man is a disaster, from the POV of the people.
The reality is you can hire a teenage hamburger flipper as a president, and America will stay the same. The real power behind the curtain (lobbyists, think tank, influence peddlers, Israel, Saudi Arabia, the war mongers) run things and dictates to the hired boy president what to say or do.
CrossTalk: Obama the worst?
