My question is easy. After reading the government and politics section on here for a few days and with your new President Obama, I can't understand all the Hatred for the man. You voted for him. Majority rules in a democratic country.

You may say, we can say what we want because we have freedom of speech. Certainly you do but do you think all this Obama Bashing is good for foreigners to be reading all the time? Is it good for your own General public? Don't you think the people who cannot think for themselves will get misinformed information reading these posts?

From what I understand, you people are supposed to be Patriotic to your President and Government. Seems to me that you Americans were Very Very Patriotic up until this last Election.

From an outsider looking in, I think many of you on this board should be ashamed of yourself for calling Your President names, making racist remarks and posting so much negativity about your new Government.

What do you say about that? And please, don't give me the "You don't live here so you have no say" stuff. From an outsiders point of view, many Americans are Embarrassing their country on these boards.

President Barack Obama belongs to Americans. We may bash or

we may brag, it is our right. However, President Barack Obama is

our leader and we will support him if push comes to shove, never

doubt our reslove for our president.



Note: I was a stark supporter of McCain/Palin 2008 and beyond and it didn't go that way at all; now I accept the fact we have President Barack Obama and that is fine and dandy since our new president is

OUR PRESIDENT! God bless Barack Obama as he

serves us to the best of his ability!

I voted for him?



Wow this is a new fact to me.



Thank you so very much for alerting me.







Second I don't "hate" him. Hate is too emotional. I dislike him and his policies and he doesn't need to be in office.

Did you see how those whiny liberals were booing the president on his farewell speech? They were behaving like animals.



These boards aren't "a representation of Americans" because it's a national website.

Please live here for at least a few weeks to understand what the people are like here.



Using ANY forum website as a representation of a nation is like using candy corn as a representation for all candy and sweets out there.

You're absolutely right. Although i don't usually agree with President Obama's politics, that's no excuse to belittle my country's leader.



The people that act this way on yahoo are most likely immature teenagers expressing their naivety through mindless name-calling.
