In eleven short months, approval number of the president have fallen so much that Obama is now the lowest approval each time a President in time of his mandate. How Obama in the fall so far so fast?

In its first four months of his term, President Obama enjoyed an approval rate is about 70%. In recent weeks, his popularity has dropped below 50%. This massive decline in the rate of approval may not only from Republicans, but indicated that the two independents and Democrats have become marginalized with the President Obama. In fact, recent studies have shown to fall to 12% among Democrats alone.

Through its first eleven months, President Obama has managed to alienate both the left and right do not – easy. To understand why more and more Americans are more dissatisfied his leadership, we must first see some of the promises Obama has made during the campaign and the first months of his presidency.

Some promises of Barack Obama are as follows:

  • Changing the way Washington works
  • Bringing transparency to the White House
  • Financial responsibility – to restore the pay as you go "and hopes Congress can not spend a dollar if you save a dollar
  • Make all health care negotiations televised on C-SPAN
  • Working in a bi-partisan, not seen before
  • Do not allow federal funding for abortion
  • Requiring a strong public choice in the draft Health Law

The Liberal Democrats believe that President Obama has turned his back on them, their biggest supporters. They see his decision to increase troop levels in Afghanistan, almost unforgivable. They do not like the fact that there testified to Congress that any bill without the option of public health care is a non-startup, because the liberal view of public choice as a step towards the ultimate goal, which is a single-payer system.

Democrats independent moderates believed in the promise of President Obama on transparency and change the way Washington works. They believed when He said it would be financially responsible and that during the first presidential debate has promised that "absolutely, we must devote the reform and when I am President, I will go line by line to ensure that we do not spend money wisely. "

Instead of transparency and bipartisanship, the president joked, "I won" when asked why Republicans have not participated in the paternity of the stimulus bill. Instead of negotiations, the two parties on the reform of health broadcast on C-SPAN, Senate Democrats Congress and held closed meetings and negotiations that the Republicans were not allowed to attend. Obama was not only aware of these negotiations, but participated in some sessions.

His promise of fiscal responsibility and the fight will now hollow. Both bills and budget recovery plan contains more than 15,000 affected. The U.S. government is set to run at least 1.9 trillion dollars U.S. budget deficit and the White House has asked Congress to pass a bill increasing the national debt limit by nearly two billion dollars raise 14 billion dollars. When President Bush left office, the national debt was $ 10,800,000,000,000.

It is much easier understand why conservatives are not happy with President Obama. In short, they see it as a fiscally irresponsible President partisan fear before the election.

When left sites like the Huffington Post starting to call President Obama is not good news for the president. David Sirota wrote Based on the demoralized Democratic, the destruction is often a political one question … is a set of questions and, moreover, a general feeling of demoralization – Who can be turned around a couple of weeks before an election with press releases and speeches inspiring cynical. "

It is time for President Obama to stop campaigning and start being the commander in chief, the leader of our country and the free world. On the campaign, you can just change positions and promises, on the basis of the group it addresses. As president, performed at a level much higher.

Many critics of President Obama said the only real experience I had was in season. His first eleven months in office are the allegations credible.
