President Obama fading miserably


President Obama caught world attention when he ran for Presidency two years ago, his fan list was rapid growing within the US and internationally. People were more impressed with his appearance and the fact that he's black on one side, forgetting that he is white on his mother's side. There was Thunderous cheers and growing popularity that favoured him which saw him to the White House today. My question is simple, how significant a leader is he today? I am personally very disappointed, not that i was an Obama supporter but i felt that maybe his coming into power would bring positive change but what i see today is a leader who hardly makes world headlines, a leader who doesn't seem to be making any positive changes and a leader that seems very mediocre.


In short, i find that his role as President of The United States seems very ineffective for a world power. He's not at centre stage at all! This is utterly disappointing. Where are all the heaps of changes which he promised during the presidential campaigns? Good PR saw him to the White House but Good PR has her limits, you need to be seen as effective, bold, strong and confident taking centre stage. I'm sorry, he has failed thus far. The US cannot afford a leader of this kind to govern for too long. If he seeks second term, it would definately be a tuff one. A pretty face and good PR has her limits.


As we get into the second half of 2010, it's getting clearer that Obama's position is at huge question. The world needs a leader, not a Pope! As i felt from the very beginning and i still feel today, Secretary Of State Hillary Rodham Clinton befits the demanding role of President of The United States Of America. Well, Her resume and calibre far bypasses Obama's and she has proven to walk her talk, she's been shinning brightly as the Secretary of State. She has been working on centre stage, Her brilliance and political 'know how's' overshadows Obama's and she clearly shines forth at world stage! She is definately the woman who has what it takes to lead a world super power.


My Prayers and Support go out to Hillary Rodham Clinton, She befits Presidency, She befits The White House. I hope she stands for Presidency in the next Presidential run, i see no need whatsoever to grant Obama a second term unless he proves otherwise.
