President Obama's first term was a real struggle, against a hostile House and Senate. Despite that, he managed to get some measures done that will benefit Americans. Other things already have benefited Americans, from families with children over 18 to LGB members of the military.
The slogan in 2008 was Yes, we can! If we can all work together to elect a Congress that will work with the President instead of against him, his second term will be far better for all of us. So, my slogan in 2012 is Yes, We Can - Again!
I'm sure some will disagree with me and continue to snipe at the President while ignoring his accomplishments. To them, I say, Yes, We Can - Again!
