Your question: "Is Obama’s Apparent Ineptitude Really Intentional? Let me cut to the chase at the outset and ask the inconvenient question. Is President Obama purposefully trying to undermine and even destroy America? Lately there has been a lot of talk—even in the left-leaning mainstream media—about the president’s ineptitude in both foreign and domestic affairs. People are now asking, “How could we have elected an individual who is so incompetent?” or variations such as, “How could a man with so much education be so dumb?” After all, the domestic and foreign relations bloopers committed by this president make even the most incompetent men to ever hold our nation’s highest office look like nuclear scientists. Watching this president’s administration in action, I find myself humming that old tune, “Send in the Clowns.” The gap between Barack Obama’s supposed credentials and his actual performance is so wide that people are beginning to wonder if there might be another explanation.

Your apparent position:
Partisan hack.
Ineptitude is a badly chosen description of Barack Obama's presidential behavior.
Performance is a well-selected description, however.

There is a purpose to his policies and it is in line with what has been the general trend for some decades now.
