My point, Star, was that you are playing this game of listing all the world's woes and then saying, hah hah, Obama hasn't solved them. It may be something to do with a presidential system, but generally it is ridiculous to expect one person to make the world a better safer place. You are setting him up just to shoot him down. It may make you feel good, but it's irrelevant.
My point about conservative americans is that so many of you can not or will not see the world in any other terms than your own. In the UK, such people are known as little engalnders. You are maybe 2% of the world's population yet you treat the place like you own it. That is why so many say Fuck you and you take this as anti american, well you would, wouldn't you? but it isn't, it is anti your world view. You are so arrogant that you take your view to be (holds clenched fist to chest and fights back a tear) the true America.
This view isn't in power any more. We are celebrating, still, you are bitchin. You have to hate on Obama.
FWIW, I work at the coalface of the globalised economy and I would not agree that NAFTA is indicative of the system. But then this thread isn't about that.
