Did he wave his hand and do them all on the first day? No. He has labored long and hard to restore democratic process to all our deliberations, and that simply takes time. We have been dismantling the New Deal and Great Society for 40-plus years. We have increased the unilateral Cold War for almost as long. Making systemic change in five years is therefore almost miraculous. The biggest problem we face as a nation is the ignorance people have about how democracy works AND what changes we have obtained that fulfill their desires but go almost unnoticed by the very people demanding them. We take superficiality as fact - Obama listens to everyone so he must be selling out to them. Nope. Not happening.<br /><br />You nailed this Nancy - Obama is keeping his promises. When are "you guys" going to notice?Churchlady320noreply@blogger.com
