Nearly every political demographic in the nation, left, right, and middle, is frustrated with the Obama administration’s failure to improve the economic health and overall condition of the country.

The value of a dollar has fallen about ~24% since 2009 through inflation and other effects because of the actions of the President and the Federal Reserve. It's hardly surprising that the price of basic commodities would increase by a large amount to compensate.

06:52-07:05...this is one important promise that Obama kept, and I give him credit for that.

Mccain the best republicans had...pathetic

[greventlv]

All I see are two criminals.

[JHOffSuit]

At least Obama is honest, he said he wanted to bring the war in a iraq to an end and he is doing that. He's done more against the fight of terrorism than bush did. ie. Osama Bin Laden.

Why didn't the moderator just bring a pair of boxing gloves for Obama and McCain? That would have been a fight.

[mrafroman1000]

Giving more money to the rich and less to the people (the gov.) and removing government regulation on the financial sector only increases the gap between the rich and the poor, which leads to a bubble and then ultimately another crisis. It's time America catches up with the rest of the world. There is no free market in America. It is all controlled by a couple of Wall Street fat cats. America needs a strong and central government or else the fat cats will completely take over.
