Obama gets a free pass from the media on what he does, or doesn't do
Maybe so, but part of the blame for that is the right-wing media goes so over the top in their criticism it creates an unrealistic expectation with conservatives. How many times have they labeled the scandal du jour "Obama's Watergate?" Then when those accusations don't stick, conservatives get butthurt that he's getting a free pass. I don't think Obama has been that great of a President(better than Bush which isn't saying much) but it has been entertaining watching him own the domes of American conservatives.

I think the last two presidents sucked arse. It's all one big party anyway if you really want to look at it with an unbiased view. Corporations and their lobbyist run this country, not one man. The greedy bastards wether they be dem or rep allow this shite to happen taking money to vote in the best intrests of the paying party I.e. Goldman sachs, monsanto, pharmaceutical companies etc....

I ardently support the fans right to boo the President or the oath here in the home of American journalism. But it was a little classless to boo during one of the most important events in the lives of our fellow Missourians.
Some of those kids could come home in body bags during the next couple of years. Booing their sacrifice lacked class.
And to be sure, the fans may have thought they were booing the President - they actually booed the enlistees.

He's also made it very difficult for most college graduates to find work. Good luck paying for college working two jobs as a waiter...

Obama has done excellent work in decreasing the student loan interest rate and making it easier to pay for college this is really the only reason I would probably vote for him

Well, it's been that way since Reagan took office in 1980. Carter was the last one that didn't really bow down to money interests, and he's widely considered the worst modern President. Funny how that happens. I think he had some great domestic policies, but his foreign policies were terrible, so maybe that sentiment is accurate.
I would love to see Elizabeth Warren run in 2016 and get the Dem nomination. She's not afraid to call out the big money folks. Unlike Hillary that is in their pocket.

Not to mention the fact that making it easier for college aged students to incur more debt isn't really a good thing.
College would likely be less expensive if money for student loans wasn't so cheap.

I respect the American electoral system.
I do not respect nor should I be expected to respect the POTUS if that individual does not represent my values.
Respect is earned, not a given. This should apply to tPOTUS as well.
The current POTUS has not earned my respect. In fact, I feel threatened by his econonic policies.
If the worse thing that people do is boo tPOTUS, then I think that is respectable.

You do realize that student loan interest rates are up dramatically under B.O., right?

More statesmen and less politicians is what we need, but the way things are today, if you don't play by their rules in Washington, it will be very hard to get elected to anything.
Ron and rand Paul are some of the few exceptions, but they will never have a chance to become president. With their anti federal reserve stance, and big time money cutting plan against useless federal departments, there will always be a candidate that the megacoorperations push past all grass roots movements during the early stages.
Just look what they, corporations, did with that lying clown mitt Romney. That guy with some of the shite he was documented flipping flopping on should have never ran for anything. The only difference between him and Obama was really religion and race. But that was enough for the majority of sheep in this nation to think they were actually voting for something different. Both candidates were supported by the same megacoorperations through out the election process.
Both candidates were one in the same for me.

What kind of pieces of trash boo the President?
Good to see that Missouri fans fit right in with the religious nutjobs, flat-earthers and Civil War reenactors that fill the southern voting rolls.
