@ehBeth,
Well, I am sucker for a lot of things which others with perhaps more elevated taste than mine aren't, but, I love his voice. Reminds me of some black church preachers or old civil rights leaders. Plus he always sounds very sincere, like it comes from him. He has not lived up to some of our expectations, I suspect not even his own. I could see why he didn't want to drag down the country into ligations and investigations with the past administrations use of "enhanced interrogations." I understand congress on both sides of aisle (think that is the right spelling and word) has kept him from keeping his promise regarding Gitmo, though I think he at the very end of his office, he should go around them and let the next administration deal with it, whoever that may be. What I strongly disagree and very disappointed him in for is/was his putting unnecessary and perhaps against international law blocks in front of those who were abused and/or tortured under the last administration and or to even give them more rights under his administration. I don't accept his excuses for it either. I know no other president would have done different, but I expected him to at least
attempt to give them more rights. On all else that I think of, I agree with either his attempts or his actions. I know drones are going to be brought up and I am glad that they have slowed down the use of drones and I know that there have been too many unintended innocent deaths, however, I don't disagree with the use of drones, I just think more work needs to be put into it to make it more accurate. He has tried to pass jobs bills and has tried to work around congress on immigration and gun safety and his justice system has been working on the problem with minorities in the justice system, though a whole lot more work needs to be on all levels both local and federal. A complete overhaul.
