Obama on presidency: ‘You get better as time goes on’ (Video at Link)

[SunsetDreams]

Interview with Matt Lauer

In a TODAY exclusive, Matt Lauer asked Obama about his supporters' disappointment over his first-term performance — that they believe he hasn't been "the transformational political figure they hoped you would be."

"What's frustrated people is that I have not be able to force Congress to implement every aspect of what I said in 2008," he said.

"That's just the nature of being president," he said. "It turns out that our founders designed a system that makes it more difficult to bring about change than I would like sometimes."

What I'm going to just keep on doing is plodding away, very persistent. And you know what? One of the things about being president is you get better as time goes on."

The Video is in multiple parts with a commercial in between, unfortunately

1. It has taken Obama too long to realise that he is being blocked by rePIGs

The system may have been designed to slow down change, but the rePIGs did not waste time in stating that they would not work in good faith. Obama added to his own problem by being a part believer in their conservative BS.
